Casa Guadalupe Multicultural Center Launches New Annual Fundraiser: Rhythms for a Cause

West Bend, WI – Casa Guadalupe Multicultural Center is excited to announce the inaugural Rhythms for a Cause, a new annual fundraising event that celebrates culture, community, and educational opportunity. The event will take place on Thursday, November 19, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Prairie Center entrance, 1900 S. 18th Avenue, West Bend.

Rhythms for a Cause brings together cultural entertainment and the community to support Casa Guadalupe's scholarship and youth education programs. This year's event will feature a vibrant Latin-inspired theme, live entertainment, food and drinks, raffle baskets, a silent auction, a wine pull, a chancla toss, and other fun activities designed to create an unforgettable evening while supporting a meaningful cause.

All proceeds from the event will benefit Casa Guadalupe's scholarship fund, which helps students pursue higher education and achieve their academic goals. Thanks to the generosity of donors, sponsors, and community members, Casa Guadalupe has helped more than 100 students attend college over the past six years. Scholarship recipients receive support toward one full year of tuition at the college, university, or technical school of their choice.

"Rhythms for a Cause is more than a fundraiser, it's a celebration of culture, opportunity, and the incredible potential of the students we serve," said Maria Gutierrez-Gurrola, Executive Director of Casa Guadalupe Multicultural Center. "Every ticket purchased helps invest in the future of local students and empowers them to pursue their dreams."

The organization plans to make Rhythms for a Cause an annual tradition, highlighting a different rhythm and dance style each year while continuing to raise critical funds for educational opportunities and scholarships.

Tickets are $60 per person. Community members, businesses, and supporters are encouraged to join Casa Guadalupe for an evening of entertainment, connection, and impact.
