❤️ This neighborly effort invites Lincolnites to make valentines with welcoming messages in various language to be share with local immigrant families.
Mentoring is a major focus for our youth team, who understand the unique challenges that immigrant youth face from navigating an unfamiliar education system to supporting their families as they acclimate to life in Lincoln.
In 2025, the Asian Center youth team spent over 6,000 hours serving nearly 400 local middle and high school students. 🤩
🎉 Cheers to MENTOR Nebraska for supporting this important work at the Asian Center and across our state!
