This summer, La Casa Amiga Friendship House had the opportunity to welcome interns representing:

📍 Hanover College
📍 Ivy Tech Madison
📍 The College of Wooster

Each of our interns brought their own ideas, talents, and energy to LCAFH. Their contributions have become a meaningful part of this new chapter for our organization, and each of them has left a lasting impact on the work we do. 🤍👏🏽

Thank you for your hard work, willingness to serve, and for choosing to be part of La Casa Amiga. I’m so proud of what you accomplished this summer and look forward to seeing all the success that awaits each of you.
