We’ve partnered with Taqueria Xochi to offer Birria Pupusas that will only be available at El Tamarindo on National Pupusa Day.
El Tamarindo will donate 10% of proceeds (12PM-4PM) from National Pupusa Day to the Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network.

Hope For Wellness will also be on site collecting new or gently used (clean, excellent condition) winter items of all sizes such as coats, gloves, scarves, sweaters, hats, sneakers, boots for these families.
