Comunidad Connect Homecoming Dinner

November 1, 2025

Join us for an unforgettable evening as we gather with friends, family, and colleagues to celebrate the impact we’ve made together—and look ahead to the work still to come.

We’re excited to welcome our Country Directors from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, who will be with us in person to share inspiring stories, exciting updates, and our shared vision for 2025.

Set against the lively backdrop of Latin music and the return of the beloved Ibarra Family serving up authentic Mexican cuisine, this will be a night full of flavor, rhythm, and meaningful connection.

The evening will begin at 6 p.m. with craft cocktails, scrumptious appetizers, and live Latin jazz. At 7 p.m. we will enjoy a buffet dinner curated by Arturo and Monce Ibarra. Their heirloom recipes from Vera Cruz, Mexico come from generations of abuelas.

This includes an exciting partnership with Delta Vacations, showcased by a luxurious vacation package for auction. The fiesta continues with our resident house DJ from Santiago, Dominican Republic.
