Welcome to Amigos Del Valle
The Mission of Amigos Del Valle, Inc. is to positively impact the quality of life in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas through the provision of diversified and effective human services, community development activities and advocacy, which are directed to low income families; and with special emphasis in assisting the elder population to maintain active, healthy and independent lives.
In its Forty-six (46) years of existence, ADV has assisted approximately 110,422 unduplicated seniors through provision of 15,758,697 congregate meals: 12,800,965 home delivered meals: 4,674,004 one-way transportation trips; and 533 subsidized rental housing apartments through ADV’s HUD section 202 developments. Without the dedicated hard work of over 400 senior volunteers, who provide over 82,000 man hours of volunteer work on an annual basis, ADV would not have been able to impact positively on the lives of such seniors during its forty-six years of existence.
