La Puente's Family of Programs

La Puente is our community's response to address the effects of poverty by providing a safety net of services, where individuals and families get what they need to stabilize, heal, strengthen, and ultimately thrive.

Our community depends on your generosity.

With thousands of hours of volunteerism from youth and adults, we provide both hope and services when families need it most.​

On July 22nd, La Puente hosted their final All-Staff meeting with the 24-25 AmeriCorps Cohort🥲

It is so bittersweet to say farewell to this group of dedicated individuals. While we have the privilege of having some members stay to fulfill another term or aid in training our incoming cohort, we appreciate the time and service each member gave while here!

During our farewell, La Puente staff and volunteers had the opportunity to share stories and memories from this past term, along with watching a recap video of the 24-25 term. Our members then received a farewell gift, as a thank you for completing their service year.

It was a morning filled with laughter, tears, and community.
