She realized underprivileged children in her hometown of <span class=\"xn-location\">Leon, Mexico<\/span> had no children&#8217;s libraries nor access to art and education and resolved to change this. Upon her return to <span class=\"xn-location\">Mexico<\/span> in 1996, Lulis took the first steps towards making her dream a reality and founded Imagina Biblioteca Infantil (IBI). What started as distributing books to an impoverished area in <span class=\"xn-location\">Leon<\/span> later became temporary libraries in generously donated spaces. Today, Imagina consists of two libraries, a pre-school, and a flourishing ecological and cultural center. In 2010, Lulis founded Imagina Children&#8217;s Foundation (ICF), a 501(c)3 in the United States, with the purpose of fundraising for the incredible programs in IBI. Currently over 1,300 children are enrolled in Imagina&#8217;s various programs including: a Montessori pre-school, two symphonic orchestras and choirs, theater and art programs, a growing robotics program and many other after school courses designed to give children opportunities they would otherwise not have. The magic of Imagina gives children and their community a safe place to grow, learn and overcome their circumstances. <i><u><a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3968580-1&amp;h=3134824293&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fimaginachildrenfoundation.org%2F&amp;a=%40imaginachildrensfoundation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">@imaginachildrensfoundation<\/a><\/u><\/i><\/p>\n<p>For media inquiries and further information, please contact:<br \/><span class=\"xn-person\">Fabiola Malka<\/span><br \/>New Concept PR<br \/><u><a href=\"mailto:fabiola@newconceptpr.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">fabiola@newconceptpr.com<\/a><\/u>\u00a0\/ 786.285.7783<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-person\">Lulis Camarena<\/span><br \/>Founder, Imagina Children&#8217;s Foundation<br \/><u><a href=\"mailto:lulis@imaginachildrenfoundation.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">lulis@imaginachildrenfoundation.org<\/a><\/u>\u00a0\/ 561-901-0348<\/p>\n<p>Photo &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3968580-1&amp;h=3883820921&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fmma.prnewswire.com%2Fmedia%2F2210320%2FImagina_Childrens_Foundation.jpg&amp;a=https%3A%2F%2Fmma.prnewswire.com%2Fmedia%2F2210320%2FImagina_Childrens_Foundation.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/2210320\/Imagina_Childrens_Foundation.jpg<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder2\">\n<\/div>\n<p>SOURCE  Imagina Children&#8217;s Foundation<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"xn-content\">\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">BOCA RATON, Fla.<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-chron\">Sept. 13, 2023<\/span> \/PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE\/ &#8212; <b><u><a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3968580-1&amp;h=3866051679&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fimaginachildrenfoundation.org%2F&amp;a=Imagina+Children%27s+Foundation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Imagina Children&#8217;s Foundation<\/a><\/u><\/b> invites the community to attend their annual gala event, &#8220;<b><u>&lt;a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":155596,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-155595","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-familia-y-vida"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/155595","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=155595"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/155595\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/155596"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=155595"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=155595"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=155595"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
