LOS ANGELES– Los Angeles County Supervisor Hilda L. Solis today awarded over $800,000 in First District Community Grants Program funding to three Latino-serving organizations. The Community Grants Program helps develop and support organizations that meet the diverse needs of First District residents in such key areas as arts, environmental justice, health, housing, immigration, and education.
“As we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, I am proud to reaffirm my support for three invaluable Latino-serving organizations: Plaza de la Raza, Voices of Immigrant Students of Alhambra, and The Wall Las Memorias. These organizations play a crucial role in uplifting our community by providing essential services, promoting cultural awareness, and fostering a sense of belonging,” said Supervisor Solis. “During this Hispanic Heritage Month, let us recognize the profound contributions of our Latino community and the vital work of these organizations. Together, we can continue to build a more inclusive and equitable future for all.”
