DM Injury Law’s October 2024 Community Involvement Recap!

By

We at DM Injury Law believe it’s important to stay connected to our community. That is why community involvement is so important to us and why we sponsor and host many events every week! 

Take a look at just some of the initiatives we sponsored and supported in October 2024! 

Blanco Y Negro 

Blanco y Negro is the premier fundraising event for Guadalupe Centers. DM Injury Law is proud to be a sponsor for this fun event full of live Hispanic music, art, dancing, and more! Guadalupe Centers provides services for Latinos throughout the Kansas City area in regard to health services, education, youth recreation, career development, and more.

Third and Long: The Greats 

We were able to participate in an exciting wine-tasting event honoring Football Greats’ 2024 Honorees. This year, we celebrated former KC Chiefs players: 

  • Jan Stenerud 
  • Willie Lanier 
  • JC Pearson 
  • Jerry Cornelison

This event invites local celebrities, football legends, and passionate fans, all coming together to raise money to “sack illiteracy”! 


Chicano Arts Festival 

The Chicano Arts Festival is a rich experience that immerses all visitors with Chicano culture. It is an opportunity to enjoy the largest lowrider show in Kansas City, engage with aspiring and experienced artists, innovative entrepreneurs, taste delicious cuisine, enjoy captivating music/dance, and more!

Evolución 2024 

Evolución, a Latino Education Conference, presents an opportunity for educators to foster connection, learn, and build mutual support among teachers, parents, and students, with a focus on strengthening their collective impact in education. 

This year’s theme was Collective Empowerment: Elevating Latinx Voices in Education. This theme underscores the essential role Latino educators play in shaping the future of education. 


Trunk or Treat Hallelujah Night 

DM Injury Law is proud to support Trunk or Treat/Hallelujah Night at Macedonia Church by providing candy and trick-or-treat bags for the spooky festivities!
