On August 11, 2024, our annual Concert in the Park was a spectacular success! Huge thanks to our partners, H.A.R.D and the Odd Fellows, for selecting our sister organization, FESCO (Family Emergency Shelter Coalition) as the beneficiary of this exciting event. 💚 The highlight of the evening was the amazing performance by The Giant Garage Spiders, who had the crowd dancing and singing along! We also appreciate La Finca Tortilleria for generously donating chips for our nacho sale, which were a delicious hit! This incredible evening showcased the strength of our community and support for FESCO. Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating music, friendship, and giving back!

La Familia’s “Caminos” team identified a need to provided a safe place for students to exercise an outlet through soccer. Most recently, former Oakland Roots Sports Club player Ricardo Guerra took time to come by and host a clinic where over 16 youth had the opportunity to learn Ricardo’s story first hand, learn values he felt important for young community members, and share some skill sessions through soccer. Caminos provides services to unaccompanied immigrant youth and children of migrant families. That have entered the US within the past 3 years fleeing violence in their home countries and are primarily from Central America and Mexico. This camp was made possible through collaboration with Kaiser Permanente and coordinated and ran by Caminos front line staff. • • • #Oakland #TheTown #TheRoots #Soccer

I’m feel so grateful for La Familia’s Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Action (IDEA) committee, in partnership with our Unity & Spirit (Us) committee, for putting on a beautiful event centering #joy and #rest as part of resistance in honor of Juneteenth. I am especially grateful for our guest speaker, Neisha Becton, MA, a proud La Familia Board Member and a powerhouse advocate in Alameda County, who shared her passion and her journey with our team. Hope your activities, whatever they are today, are filled with this much community, dancing, connection, great food, and togetherness.
