On Saturday, August 29 Chicago Parking Meters (CPM) and LAZ Parking donated a check for $500 to local community agency Casa Central. Casa Central has been active in Chicago since 1954 when it was formed by a multi-denominational group of churches dedicated to providing social services to the Hispanic population.

Casa has since evolved from just three employees into a cornerstone of the Hispanic community with a team of 450.

Rafael Aguilar, Director of Operations for LAZ speaks to the Casa community at its Back-to-School Event August 29.

Rev. Danielle Alvarez, Founder and President Emeritus of Casa Central, accepts a check from Tony DiPaolo, LAZ Parking Chicago, Regional Vice President, and Rafael Aguilar, Director of Operations of LAZ Parking, on behalf of Chicago Parking Meters.
