A Little History
Centro Unido Latino Americano opened its doors in 2009 and officially became a non-profit organization in 2011. The goal was to make accessible as many equitable and philanthropic resources to the Latino community as possible.
Even though our organization has encountered challenges throughout the years, our motivation comes from the communities we serve. We have hit many milestones thanks to the different organizations, people, and resources that have helped us build the foundation we currently have. The continued support of McDowell County is something we will always be grateful for.
