✨ ¡Feliz Día del Niño! ✨

Today we celebrate the joy, curiosity, and limitless potential of every child in our community.

Since 1999, Amigos, the Richmond Latino Center, has worked to empower the Latinx community to engage actively in Richmond and Wayne County while promoting learning, cooperation, and respect across cultures. Days like today remind us why that mission matters! Our children are at the heart of everything we do.

Through education, health, social services, and meaningful cultural connections, we are committed to supporting children and families as they grow, learn, and thrive. We believe that when we nurture potential, embrace diversity, and work together, we build a stronger, more connected community for the next generation.

Join us in celebrating by uplifting the children in your life. Take time to read together, play together, and remind them just how loved and valued they are today and always. 💛

In partnership with Ascension St. Vincent Indianapolis and Neighborhood Health Center, we were able to bring a free mammogram screening event to our community on Monday, 4/27.

We were able to offer free mammograms to women without health insurance, helping increase access to vital preventive care and supporting early detection.

We are grateful to our partners for helping make this important community health event possible. 💗
