Hope for the Holidays

As part of our tradition of giving back to our community, El Centro de Amistad hosts an annual Thanksgiving Food Drive and Adopt-A-Family campaign during the holiday season. Both of these campaigns are heartwarming initiatives aimed at bringing joy and hope to low-income families struggling with mental health issues. The campaigns seek to create a sense of community and support by providing essential resources and bringing festive cheer to families in need.


Campaign Information:


Thanksgiving Campaign– Our Thanksgiving Food Drive will run from October 2nd to Nov 17, 2023.


Adopt-A-Family Campaign– Our Adopt-A-Family Campaign will take place between November 1st to December 1st. For more information, please see our holiday flyers.


How to Get Involved:
