Mark and Diane Janbakhsh founded the Hispanic Family Foundation in 2013. They both grew up in Middle Tennessee and have committed themselves to serving the community. As a result of their success in business and their passion for the community, they started the foundation to help serve the children and families of the immigrant community.
The foundation celebrated it’s 10th anniversary in 2023 and continues to serve the community. During the pandemic it set up food drives and health fairs in the parking lot of Plaza Mariachi and has continued to expand with activities such as Dia de la Mujher (Women’s Day), Dial del Nino (Day of the Child), Dia del Reyes (Three Kings Day), Back to School, and women’s programs such as Little Sprouts / Baby Showers which serve expecting mothers.
The foundation also offers many walk-in services, classes, and social services. Mark and Diane along with the board of directors continue to evaluate opportunities to serve the community.
