Welcome to Casta Latina!
This project began with the idea that all Latinos in Canada are a success story simply by being here, regardless of what you do for a living. In March 2021, we started by interviewing Latinos and uploading the interviews to YouTube.
A couple of years later, in April 2023, we became a federally registered non-profit organization in Canada. We evolved from YouTube into a digital multiplatform presence on six social media networks that educates, empowers, and showcases the Latin American community in Canada.
Our Mission
Casta Latina exists as a digital platform that contributes to the integration and development of the Latin American community, promoting its active participation in the ongoing construction of Canadian multiculturalism.
First Latin Convention
Casta Latina held its first in-person event, CONEXIONES LATINAS, on September 28 in Toronto, where our goal is to educate, empower, and support the Latino community in Canada. In 2025, it will be a two-day experience, taking place on September 20 and 21 at the largest library in Canada, in Toronto.
Our Principles
We encourage freedom of expression with responsibility from those who exercise it.
We promote respectful dialogue as a necessary exchange of ideas.
We honor and embrace our Latin Canadian identity.
We practice transparency and accountability.
We create synergies with and among individuals and groups who actively participate in the development of the Latin American community in Canada.
Operating Principles
Casta Latina operates under two main principles:
We are an “umbrella” organization in which each project is independent in terms of content creation and monetization.
We are a non-profit organization. As such, the resources for our operation, maintenance, and development are sustained through pre-established donations from participating projects

We create digital content independently, distributed across the various digital platforms where Casta Latina Network has a presence. All content is the responsibility of its creators and aligns with the values of Casta Latina Network.
Founders
Casta Latina thanks the founding team of visionary leaders who trusted in this wonderful project. Their commitment has not only laid the foundation of Casta Latina but has also inspired all of us to work toward the common goal of creating a positive impact in the Latino community in Canada.
Thank you for your unwavering passion and the incredible legacy you have created with us and of course, thank you for Sacar la casta!
