We recently had the privilege of welcoming Pat Looney to the Idaho Hispanic Foundation, where she spent the morning with our youth group teaching them all about dahlias. The kids had so much fun learning about these beautiful flowers, planting their own tubers, and getting their hands dirty while discovering the joy of gardening.

Pat returned the very next day to join our Kinship Group for lunch and another dahlia planting activity. It was wonderful to see participants of all ages come together to learn, connect, and grow.

We are incredibly grateful for community champions like Pat who generously share their time, knowledge, and passion with our families. Her dedication to our community and belief in the work we do at the Foundation truly make a difference.

One of the most exciting parts has been seeing the photos start rolling in as everyone's dahlias begin to sprout and grow! 🌱🌸 We can't wait to bring everyone back together in the coming months to plant them here at the Community Center, where their beautiful blooms can be enjoyed by the entire community.

Thank you, Pat, for helping us create lasting memories, build connections, and plant seeds that will continue to grow long after these flowers bloom. 💜🌸

We're beyond excited to welcome Adriana Espinoza, owner of 208 Slime Bar, to our Youth Programming this Friday! 🎉

Adriana is generously donating her time to teach our kids how to make SLIME—one of the most fun, hands-on activities around! 💚 Kids absolutely love it, and we know they're going to have an amazing time mixing, creating, and getting a little messy along the way.

As a local small business owner and mom to a beautiful baby boy, Adriana has built a business that allows her to be present with her family while bringing creativity and joy to children throughout our community. If you've ever met her, you know she is incredible with kids and makes every activity fun and engaging.

This is a FREE event, but space is limited and registration is required. Be sure to reserve your child's spot before we fill up!

Please help us thank Adriana by following 208 Slime Bar on Instagram and supporting this wonderful local business. ❤️

We are incredibly honored to have our Chief Executive Director recognized by AC Boise as a Community Impact STAR.

Today, we are holding our friend and colleague Jacky and her family close in our hearts as they navigate the unimaginable loss of her husband. Many in our community know Jacky through her years of service to others through her work at IORC and other positions she has held. She has dedicated herself to supporting families, connecting people to resources, building partnerships, and showing up whenever her community needed her.

Now, her family is facing one of the most difficult chapters of their lives.

In moments like these, community matters. We are sharing this fundraiser for those who have asked how they can support Jacky and her 3 young boys during this time. Whether through a donation, a kind message, or simply keeping them in your thoughts and prayers, every gesture of support is appreciated.

Last night, our friend Jacqueline "Jacky" Vasquez lost her husband, Mike Va… Samantha Guerrero needs your support for Support Vasquez Family After Tragic Loss
