    Our annual fiesta raised $229,659 mxp

    Amigos’ annual fiesta on February 11, our major fundraising event for 2024, drew a large crowd and raised $229,659 pesos in support of our sterilization and education activities. The Valentine’s Day–themed party featured delicious food prepared by an army of volunteers, dozens of donations from individuals and businesses for our auction and raffle, three separate sales areas, drinks, music, and dancing. Antonia (Tony) López Palacios was the recipient of our Volunteer of the Year Award, and Susan Pataky received our Founder’s Award. We invite our readers’ comments on the fiesta and your ideas for future fundraising events. Read more
