Las Candalistas is a 100% non-profit volunteer group of women from various areas of the South Bay. We LOVE this organization because they sincerely do several helpful, beneficial, and life-changing for those they serve. We find this organization as authentic in their desire to make a difference, in the help they strive to provide, and in the cheerfulness and personal attitude of their staff. Please know that the 143 members of Las Candalistas not only believe in the positive outcome that Communities Child makes, but also in the sharing of encouragement and care they pass-on to their population in need. Your donations are always going to the needs of the population they help. This group is honest, sincere in their intentions, and supported by Las Candalistas. Thank-you.
