Our Purpose

Centro Latino de Hospitaliad,  is a collaboration between the Granite State Organizing Project (GSOP) and St. Anne-St. Augustin Catholic Parish in Manchester, NH.  Centro Latino is a drop in center for the largest and most underserved minority population.   Centro Latino opertates two afternoons per week in the basement of  St. Anne-St. Augustin Parish.  The most important offering of Centro Latino is a place for people to go and feel safe and to get their questions answered.   Our partner, St. Anne-St. Augustin Parish, has a large Latinio/a congregation and is one of the only places where the undocumented community feels safe.  Centro Latino is supporte by community volunteers fluent in Spanish. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic Centro Latino is distributing  boxes of food to the Latinio/a community of Manchester.  Boxes of food, both fresh and non-perishable will be given to any family in need, without regard to their immigration status.
