Our LIA group volunteers as tutors, four days a week, at McKinley Elementary School. They have also participated in various service projects this year.
It was so fun to be invited by our Latinos in Action students to join their circle today! What a great bunch of kids. I was deeply impressed with their positivity and motivation!
