Thanks to his visionary leadership as municipal mayor, Hugo Eduardo Torres proposed that the City Council donate land for the construction of the Rosarito Boys and Girls Club, a nonprofit organization.

This humane, commendable, and socially impactful initiative was unanimously approved, leading to the establishment of a facility that now serves dozens of children in the community.

Thirteen years later, the club has flourished with robust infrastructure that provides children with a variety of classes in cultural, artistic, and athletic disciplines while their parents work in nearby factories and businesses.

“My father said, ‘This area will one day host factories, and this club will be here to support the children of their employees.’ Thirteen years later, the factories arrived, but he had already set his mission to help working parents in this area,” said Rosy Torres, the club’s president.

Children Showcase Talents During Holiday Celebration

Following the unveiling of the plaque honoring Mr. Torres, the parents of the club’s beneficiaries gathered in classrooms to enjoy various artistic performances by the students.

In celebration of the holiday season, the children showcased their singing and dancing talents, performing classic Christmas carols such as “Los Peces en el Río” and “Rodolfo el Reno.”

The event also featured folkloric dance presentations and a piano performance, delighting the audience with its festive spirit.
