Spirit of the Barrio

Spirit of the Barrio

Angel Mason Broadus May 5, 2025

Join us for an inspiring afternoon with Erica Alfaro –– award-winning author, educational advocate and international keynote speaker.

From the fields of adversity to global recognition, Erica’s story of resilience, hope and triumph will leave you uplifted and remind you of the strength within our communities. Be there to hear her story live!

Harvesting Dreams: Defying the Odds to Achieve the American Dream

Erica Alfaro is an award-winning author, educational advocate and international keynote speaker. In 2019, her graduation photo –– taken in a strawberry field with her farmworker parents –– went viral and made headlines around the world.

Her story has been featured in major media outlets, including CNN, the Huffington Post and Yahoo News. She has received certificates of recognition from the U.S. Assembly and Senate, as well as a letter of recognition from former Vice President Kamala Harris. She has received multiple Latina and business leadership awards, including Constituent of the Month by the House of Representatives and 40 under 40 by Business Street.

Her story was portrayed in the docuseries Cronicas de Univision, and her book, “Harvesting Dreams,” received the International Latino Book Award and the 7th Latino “Book into Movies” award.

In 2023, the County of San Diego proclaimed October 5 as “Erica Alfaro’s Day” and a public mural of her was painted in National City to honor her as a community leader.

Erica’s graduation picture and story are now permanently featured in San Francisco’s Angel Island Immigration Museum.

Mitchell Thorp Foundation Warrior Spirit 5K Run/Walk & Family Festival

Angel Mason Broadus January 6, 2025

Come join us for the most inspirational 5K run/walk in the region. On Saturday, February 1st. 2025, Carlsbad and the surrounding San Diego County communities will come together to celebrate the 16th Annual Mitchell Thorp Foundation Warrior Spirit 5K Run/Walk and Family Festival at Poinsettia Park, Carlsbad. The event will be supporting families whose children are suffering from life-threatening illnesses, diseases, and disorders. For 16 years, the community has encouraged and supported our local critically ill children and their families by showing them they are not alone with bringing hope and a warrior spirit.

As a participant you will receive a branded T-shirt and finishing medal. Opening ceremonies, you have the chance to see a skydiving demonstration, live bands, a fun DJ, warm up with a fitness team, join a hula-a-hoop contest, browse vendors, experience healing mini ponies, play games, inflatable jumpers and slides and much more. Prizes will be awarded for largest team and fundraiser, along with prizes for the best runners for men and women in multiple divisions.

The annual event is Mitchell Thorp Foundation’s largest fundraiser of the year, providing the support needed to increase the number of families and children saved. Families face 24/7 care and hardship when their child is diagnosed with a critical disease. The stress will test these families beyond their endurance, often bankrupting them financially, emotionally, and physically. Join us in helping children fighting for their tomorrows.

Mitchell Thorp Foundation is a public 501(c)(3) charity. (EIN: 27-0824320) Donations are tax deductible permitted by law. To learn more, go to: https://www.mitchellthorp.org/
