My Nonprofit Reviews

The Latino Community Association provides Central Oregon's Latino population with much needed resources and relationships. While this population continues to grow in the region, many barriers still exist that disadvantage Latino adults and youth. LCA not only provides relevant and up-to-date resources like the childhood deferment act but also creates numerous opportunities to engage in community development. Fundraising events that include meaningful ceremonies such as the nationalization ceremony in the fall and fun activities like making guacamole and tortillas help empower and educate all members of the Central Oregon community. I think that this effort to not only strengthen the Latino community but to build bridges among all Central Oregonians makes LCA an invaluable organization. In only a few weeks of volunteering with LCA, I was able to see their dedication to their cause and the great importance they hold for so many individuals. Volunteers and clients help support the organization the few LCA staff work tirelessly nonetheless to continue to compile job listings, process paperwork and build bonds with their members and beyond.
