A Place to Call Our Own
This is an exciting and challenging time for APOYO. We are building on more than 25 years of service to our community and transitioning off CWU’s campus to our own space.
The APOYO Community Outreach Center will be a gathering place for the Latinx community and others, too. There is nothing like it in Kittitas County. Community members will be able to work together to provide food and other material support, offer and receive education through classes and workshops on topics relevant to the community, host multicultural events, and provide activities and care for children and elders. This project addresses the need for safe spaces for marginalized people to meet their own needs and will help build social justice and racial equity in Kittitas County. Community involvement guides our planning and assures APOYO’s success.
APOYO is very fortunate to have the support of the Inatai Foundation. APOYO received their President’s Fund Award in 2021. We have received other generous gifts to help make it possible to open the doors of the Community Outreach Center, but we still have a long way to go to raise the funds we need to complete the project.
Help us make it happen!
