Molina Healthcare recently honored Jorge Galindo, from Everett, as one of its Community Champions for going “above and beyond” to help local youth.
Galindo was one of seven award winners from across the state who each received $1,000 grants from Molina to donate to the nonprofits of their choice. Galindo selected Hand in Hand, one of the nonprofit efforts for which he volunteers.
Galindo volunteers more than 30 hours per week in a variety of ways to help young people and families, particularly in the Casino Road area. Following a large fire, for example, he helped draw support from local laundromats, grocery stores and restaurants to help displaced families, and helped families navigate social services.
