Our Mission

Our vision is to create a healthy, united, inclusive, equitable, and diverse community.

Building connections (bridges/puentes) between Latin American residents and the broader Lakeshore community, especially in Grand Haven, Spring Lake and Ferrysburg (the Tri-Cities). We cultivate these connections by creating opportunities for Latin American culture to be celebrated and for individuals to be equipped to lead, collaborate, serve, and thrive.
