Celebrate community by preserving recipes and sharing stories across generations. Our teen volunteers will help older adults create digital keepsakes while building cultural connections.

Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month through recipes, family stories and intergenerational connections. In this special program, teens will partner with older adults to help preserve treasured family recipes by transforming handwritten recipes into polished digital copies that participants can take home.

Whether it’s a recipe passed down from a grandparent, a dish connected to a family’s cultural heritage or a favorite meal filled with special memories, this program helps preserve these traditions for future generations.

Participants are also invited to share the stories behind their recipes, creating opportunities for teens and older adults to connect, learn from one another and celebrate the importance of cultural heritage. Through digital support, storytelling and meaningful conversations, this program builds connections across generations — one recipe at a time.

Space is first come, first served. Each participant may bring one special recipe to preserve during the session.

Celebra la comunidad preservando recetas y compartiendo historias entre generaciones. Nuestros voluntarios adolescentes ayudan a los adultos mayores a crear recuerdos digitales mientras fortalecen las conexiones culturales.

Celebra el Mes de la Herencia Hispana a través de recetas, historias familiares y conexiones intergeneracionales. En este programa especial, los adolescentes colaborarán con adultos mayores para ayudar a preservar valiosas recetas familiares, transformando recetas escritas a mano en copias digitales que los participantes podrán llevarse a casa.
Ya sea una receta heredada de un abuelo, un platillo relacionado con una tradición cultural familiar o una comida favorita llena de recuerdos especiales, este programa ayuda a preservar estas tradiciones para las generaciones futuras.

También invitamos a los participantes a compartir sus historias sobre las recetas, creando oportunidades para que los adolescentes y las personas mayores se relacionen, aprendan unos de otros y celebren la importancia del patrimonio cultural. A través del apoyo digital, la narración de historias y conversaciones significativas, este programa crea vínculos entre generaciones, receta a receta.
El cupo es limitado y se asigna por orden de llegada. Cada participante puede traer una receta especial para conservar durante la sesión.
