Concerns about community safety and accessibility prompt Centro to shift Annual Tres Reyes Celebration on MLK Day from DRIVE THRU to DELIVERY event
The annual Tres Reyes (Three Kings) Celebration is one of Centro Hispano of Dane County (Centro)’s longest standing and most popular community events – the community looks forward to the day all year and hundreds of kids and their families traditionally come to Centro to enjoy the festivities and toy giveaway. Although Centro initially planned to host a DRIVE THRU event this year on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the agency has since shifted to a DELIVERY model out of concern that a Drive Thru event would put families at increased risk of exposure to COVID as well as to make the event accessible to all children, regardless of their transportation status.
Dear community, the application to for a free toy has come to its end. Thank you for your interest in participating, we are looking forward to be with you in future events.
Do you want to help us bring joy to the children in our community?
From collecting gifts, to wrapping them, to fixing snacks -- this celebration wouldn't be possible without the support of the many volunteers and donors who help us year after year. Mil gracias!
Please consider getting involved in one the following ways:
Organize a toy drive with your neighbors, friends and co-workers and donate the gifts to Centro.
Make a gift to Centro that we can use to help purchase toys and supplies for the event. Please contact nina@micentro.org for details.
