Angelita's Amigos is a volunteer, non-profit organization established in 1988 to honor the memory of Angela Grace Olivas. Angela fell Victim to Leukemia at the tender age of Four. Our organization is dedicated to the fight against this dreaded disease and any other form of cancer that attacks our children. Our goal is to help the families in our communities who have children affected by this disease. In 1999, our organization, in
cooperation with St. Joseph's Hospital, established the 'Angelita's Amigos
Room' in their pediatric ward. The 'family friendly' room provides necessities for
the family and the child's comfort during the day, as well as overnight accommodations for
loved ones to stay with their child while the child undergoes treatment
Each May, Angelita's
Amigos hosts a one-day golf tournament to raise funds toward the organization's goals.
Thanks to our participants and sponsors last year, our 14th annual golf tournament
