We've moved, we've grown, and we've deepened our programs, but at heart we're still the same organization that Claire and Elizabeth Sullivan willed into life in 1934. Working from a small East Harlem apartment, Casita Maria’s goal back then was to give the children of recently arrived Hispanic families the educational support needed to thrive in their new homeland. This year, with the opening of the Casita Maria Center for Arts and Education building, we are poised to serve our community in ways that can only have been dreamed of by our founders. Like our founders, we are still committed to helping the members of our community achieve the American Dream.
