History
Motivated by the economic, civic and humanitarian needs of a large sector of the population of South Florida, Héctor E. Gutiérrez (Eli Galo), Consuelo Espinoza, Héctor Z Gutierrez, Eli G Gutiérrez and a group of people of different nationalities, They brought together and addressed the economic, civic and humanitarian problems that many residents face and what to do to help them, especially families and people with low economic resources, and thus reached a consensus to form The Nicaraguan American National Council Inc. (NANCOUNCIL) Organization without for profit (501c3) that allows them to help in an institutional and viable way not only to Nicaraguan-Americans but to people of different nationalities. They begin their work by enrolling legal residents and American citizens in the Organization, so that aid to the community is more organized and viable.

One of our priorities has been helping Nicaraguans who are coming to the United States of America in search of asylum and refuge due to the events that have occurred in Nicaragua since 2018.
Until now we have provided help to the community through the support and cooperation of immigration attorneys and people certified by the Immigration Department who donate their services, but the demand is so great that we need donations from government and private entities.
