Romeo Santos Launches Fundación Los Santos to Support Children With Autism & More Uplifting Moments in Latin Music

Bachata artist Romeo Santos has launched Fundación Los Santos, a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting children with autism and their families. The initiative aims to provide resources, educational opportunities, developmental programs and community initiatives, with a personal connection to Santos' own experience raising a child with autism.

Additionally, Los Ángeles Azules, the iconic cumbia group, will receive a street naming in Los Angeles ahead of Hispanic Heritage Month. The intersection of Van Nuys Boulevard and Chase Street in Panorama City will be renamed Los Ángeles Azules Square, honoring the band's cultural impact and years of connection with the Latino community.
