Description

Welcome to Centro de Informacion. We work to empower our community to effectively integrate into our greater community by facilitating information, education, citizenship, and well-being. On behalf of everyone at Centro, including the nearly 7,000 clients we served last year, we would like to request a donation in the form of an item or service certificate for our Silent Auction at the Centro de Informacion 2023 Annual Gala.

In our community, hunger knows no age or race, and our emergency food pantry can make a difference in someone's moment of need. Immigration laws are not easy to understand, nor is citizenship an easy path to follow without guidance. Families faced with a crisis need trusted advocates and financial support to get them through to the next month. Centro's bilingual, trained staff is ready to work with any individual navigating these pathways. Friends in the community like ours help us make a difference in the lives of new immigrant arrivals and long-residents experiencing life's challenges.

Dollars raised at our Annual Galla will help us continue to empower our community. This year we are specifically working to raise funds to further expand our immigration team's capacity to serve the growing need for services in the Chicagoland area.

Please consider joining us in our mission this year! I have included a few details below for you to look over. Please feel free to reach out with any questions as we strengthen our partnership to support more families like yours.
