Absolutely! I grew up down the street from the Guadalupe Center, 2312 Jarboe. The Guadalupe Center was the center of my life on the West Side. Mi Mamagrande la Dona Cruz Garcia, had the confidence of Dorothy Gallagher, to the point that Dorothy wanted to adopt my Tio Nino, the former Frank Garcia, who is the Father of Chachi! I owe much of my identity as a Chicano to the Guadalupe Center which in the 50's, helped my build a sense of responsibility while helping build the Fiesta stage and afterwards attend Boys Scout meetings in the old basement room that opened out into a play-ground back before the remodeling. It was at the Guadalupe Center where I learned to play the piano, taking lessons from Miss McGuire. It was there when last year I found my old friend Salvador "Chava" Gomez, who asked me where I had been the last 50 years!!!! So YES, I have good things to say about Guadalupe Center and all the people who work there. Jose Francisco "Chato" Rios de Garcia......

The Guadalupe Center has been a great partner the greater Kansas City Latino Community. The GCI creates a positive atmosphere for all ages by providing social, health,educational and recreational activites. The culinary school is the best! The Guadalupe Center is one of longest operational Latino Centers in the United States serving the community since 1919. It is great to partner with an organization that is making a difference int he Latino community.

This a historical organization that is making a difference in the Latino community but helps everyone. They have steller education, health, senior and youth progams that provides opportunities to many who wouldnt have access. By far an organization to follow and visit.

The Guadalupe Center is a great asset to our community. The staff is amazing, super friendly, and very organized! My family and I look forward to participating in the "adopt a family" program every year as well as other various opportunities throughout the year. Keep up the great work!

My children attend GCI's CALMECAC Enrichment Program. They enjoy the activities and frienships made every summer. But most importantly they continue to stimulate their minds throughout the summer because this program emphasizes on literacy. My children are better readers because of this program further the program is an asset to working parents, like myself. Not only do my children have a safe place to go during the day but they are challenged to set goals and exceed them. Literacy and achieving goals - priceless! Thank you Guadalupe Center for being a part of our community.
