Our goalCampaign CENTRO aims to raise 20 million dollars by the end of 2023 when the agency is celebrating its 40th anniversary, to build a safe, strong, and sustainable home for the Latinx community on the Southside of Madison, Wisconsin.
Funds will be invested in two priority areas: - Building a new facility with improved accessibility and increased square footage for program expansion - Seed funds for critical development of agency infrastructure to support the growth of workforce and educational programs |

The concept
Calli, home, is an ancient symbol that originates back to the Aztec calendar. Calli is associated with rest, tranquility and family. The concept of Calli is woven throughout campaign CENTRO and even into the design of the building. |
The site
The new Centro will be located at the corner of Cypress Way and Hughes Place, right around the corner from where we are currently located. Pictured - Centro Juventuras Summer Program doing teambuilding activities at the new site. |
A Safe BuildingOur new building will allow increased safety for staff and the community, sustainability in building design, enhanced accessibility, and the square footage needed for critically needed expansion of youth and workforce programs to meet needs.
|
Strong ProgramsCentro's workforce and youth programs are in high demand but all programs are currently waitlisted. The campaign will provide seed funds and added programming space necessary for the development and expansion of these program areas.
|
A Sustainable OrganizationCentro is the largest non-profit provider in Dane County supporting the Latinx community and a critical partner to the city, county and state. The campaign will focus on sustainability so the organization can better strategize and plan for community needs.
