We were happy to support Unidos Bridging Community at their annual Gala, celebrating The Power of Future Ancestors. Unidos does incredible work in our community providing families with Latin American roots resources in health, intergenerational wealth building, civic engagement and education. We’re proud to stand with them in their efforts.

Thanks to the team at Stoller for the great space and warm hospitality. 🍇
