Amistad
Amistad
"Amistad” means friendship in the tradition of the good Samaritan. Since 1976, Amistad has been a social service organization that provides ‘wrap-around’ services to a wide spectrum of persons in need to include: persons with disabilities, low-income, elderly, incapacitated, Veterans and homeless. Now carried proudly in the hands of employees, these services bring care with compassion to those who might otherwise be neglected from meeting their needs, and ultimately empowering them to stand on their own. Our Mission is to advocate, connect, and deliver exceptional social services to communities, ensuring a dignified and meaningful life for all.

Causes: Homelessness and Housing, Senior Services, Veterans

Throughout the years, Amistad has seen many changes, faced challenges, experienced growth, but most importantly, has positively impacted the lives of thousands of people. What began as a project by Mrs. Lucy G. Acosta to provide transportation to elderly residents and persons with disabilities, has grown into a multifaceted organization serving El Paso and Far West Texas.

This year, Amistad has served 30,000 individuals in need. With the help of generous donations from community partners, we have created a one stop shop for the elderly, persons with disabilities, Veterans, and persons at risk. Our team has guided clients during their darkest moments, ensuring they achieve a quality of life they can be proud of. When you give to Amistad, know you are giving to programs that provide 24/7 service to homeless individuals. You’re providing mental health services to Veterans living with PTSD. You are granting us the privilege of serving the disenfranchised in El Paso.

This El Paso Giving Day, support Amistad to ensure we continue to provide essential services for our community, for you and your loved ones.

Amistad Guardians oversee the care of over 400 individuals who are elderly or living with a traumatic brain injury. Many clients do not have the funds to provide for themselves. The Client Health and Welfare Fund provides essential items for these clients.
Amistad provides wrap around services to Veterans and their families by assisting with utilities, rent, mortgage, and mental health.
Money Basics is a course for students with different abilities interested in increasing their financial literacy. The course increases their independence and provides valuable life skills.
