Adina Martin
With 24 years of experience, Mrs. Martin is a first-year teacher for our Anímate Summer Academy Being half-Panamanian, she wanted to give back to the Afro-Latina community. She discovered our job posting on Indeed, and had not heard of LaAmistad. She wants to create Spanish-speaking opportunities for children outside of the home in order to acquire knowledge and vocabulary.
“The only bad thing is I can’t do more because I’m so far away.”

Larissa Lopez
Starting as a summer Intern, Larissa is now working as a part-time employee with LaAmistad. Graduating in Spring 2024 with a Human Services degree, she was made aware of La Amistad by an internship counselor. Larissa speaks “just enough Spanish,” but has a multi-cultural background. She identifies with the students and shares commonality in the way they grew up.
