Amidst difficult times, the light of hope emerges. In our recent food donation campaign in Venezuela, as a team at Jornada, we come together as a community to provide support to those who need it most. With a commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of our families, neighbors, and friends, we embark on this endeavor with hearts full of empathy and solidarity. We managed to deliver an impressive quantity of non-perishable food items, basic supplies, and essential items. From rice and beans to canned goods, each donation represented a ray of hope for the communities affected by food scarcity.

At La Jornada, we're thrilled to announce our Community Baby Showers for migrant mothers! We're delighted to provide a warm and welcoming space to celebrate the arrival of the little ones in our migrant communities. We believe in the importance of supporting and strengthening community ties, especially during such special moments as the anticipation of a new family member. Our Community Baby Showers are more than just events; they're a demonstration of solidarity and mutual support. We aim to create a loving environment where migrant mothers can share experiences, receive useful gifts, and celebrate this exciting stage of their lives together. We take pride in offering this service to our brave migrant mothers, recognizing their incredible resilience and determination. Together, we create a space where every mother feels valued, supported, and celebrated. Join us in this beautiful celebration of life and community! #CommunityBabyShower #Migrants #CommunitySupport #LaJornadaFoundation
