Dear Instituto Supporter,
The Instituto Familia extends endless gratitude to our dedicated supporters, valued partners, and, above all, the 15,000 individuals whose lives we touch through education, legal aid, and migrant assistance. In 2024, your unwavering support has filled our hearts with love, strengthened our sense of community, and exemplified the solidarity that defines our mission.
As you embrace the holiday season with your loved ones, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to Instituto. Your generosity, regardless of size, empowers us to continue providing essential services to our Latino community – fostering education, offering training, and promoting employment opportunities. Together, we strive for full participation in the United States, all while preserving the cultural identity and dignity of the families we serve. Your support truly makes a meaningful difference.

Instituto’s Youth after-school programs hosted our annual holiday celebration this month!

Families from the Youth Leadership and STEM and the Family Literacy initiatives came together to enjoy multicultural food and activities. @blueplatechicago has adopted our program to give every student a gift from their wish list, making the celebration that much more special. On behalf of the families, we want to thank Blue Plate and their employees for their generosity. It takes a village! ☀️
