Juan's Big Day of Giving Fundraiser

The Mexican Cultural Center of Northern California (MCCNC) is a community-based nonprofit cultural arts, education, and community service organization established in 1992.  Its mission is to enrich the Sacramento and Northern California communities through education, entertainment, and outreach activities that preserve Mexican heritage by fostering the cultural, artistic, and historical legacy of Mexico.

Throughout the year, the Mexican Cultural Center of Northern California (MCCNC) hosts, organizes, promotes and supports several annual programs that focus on California's rich Mexican heritage. The first event of the year is "Dia de La Bandera" (Mexican Flag Day) which is held on February 24 at Sutter's Fort.  It is an educational field trip attended by fourth graders, their parents, teachers, school administrators and the public at large. It is presented and organized by MCCNC in collaboration with the California State Historical Parks at Sutter's Fort, the Sacramento Unified School District and the Mexican Consulate. The event focuses on early California and Mexican history and the important role of Sacramento.
