Description
Every year, the Chicano Federation honors Cesar Chavez's legacy with a day of service. On Saturday, they assisted families displaced by the floods staying at the Ramada Hotel in National City.
“There's still a lot of work to be done, there's still a lot of families that are suffering so let's be kind to one another and let's help each other out,” Chicano Federation CEO Liz Ramirez said.
25 families were displaced from the Chicano Federation's Delta apartment complex after they were heavily impacted by the storm. The floods destroyed their homes and many of them even lost their cars.
“A lot of our residents are here at the Ramada, so we want to make sure that we take care of them but we also know that a lot of other families that were affected are also lodged here in this hotel,” Chicano Federation Director of Development and Community Relations Veronica Macedo said.
