Los muchachos del Latino Club junto con sus moderadores y líderes se han encargado no sólo de embellecer los pasillos de la escuela con coloridas banderas y decoraciones (las cuales incluyen artesanías típicas, fotos de ceremonias tradicionales como “la quinceañera”, e imágenes de nuestra querida Virgen de Guadalupe) que representan las tradiciones y la cultura de los países de donde provienen las familias de nuestra comunidad salesiana, sino que también han organizado ventas y actividades para la recaudación de fondos que luego serán donados a fundaciones y organizaciones que apoyan a niños y jóvenes de familias latinas de bajos recursos económicos. Con mucho orgullo les deseo a todas las familias salesianas latinas un feliz mes de la herencia latina. Sintámonos orgullosos de nuestra herencia latina y nunca paremos de educar y exponer a nuestros hijos a sus raíces latinas. Tenemos una gran herencia cultural!
