About us
In a world that is growing ever more divided, at Vecinos, our MISSION is to bring together Latinos and non-Latinos alike, to form a stronger community while celebrating the richness of Latino culture.
The heart of our work is embracing diversity—not merely tolerating differences, but honoring them—while also finding connection in the universal threads that tie us all together: family, community, and the desire to belong.
Vecinos de South Pasadena is a grassroots, all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. Our strength comes from the passion and dedication of community members who believe in the power of connection, culture, and shared experiences.
