El Campito was founded in 1970 to aid migrant families coping with the stuggles of starting a new life in South Bend, Indiana. Thirty years later, through the generous support of the community, El Campito has grown to become one of South Bend's oldest non-profit family care centers. Through our three programs, we demonstrate our commitment to create a community of our own - an inclusive environment that embraces and celebrates children from all cultures and economic backgrounds.
