Para los Niños de Highline gives back to Latin American Community
Prior to the April 19th match against Nashville SC, the club honored Para los Niños de Highline during Scarves Up, a non-profit that works toward giving back to the Latin American community within the Highland School District. What started in 2003 by Latino parents who wanted their kids to have more resources within the community, has turned into a flourishing organization that offers an abundance of different programs for both children and adults.
