Sobre Nós
EBLO is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1980 by a group of like minded Latino residents from East Baltimore under the direction of Jose O. Ruiz, a community activist and at that time, new to Baltimore. Jose, of Puerto Rican heritage acted in response to the lack of services available to Latinos in Baltimore.
After 34 years of educational advocacy, cultural presentations and educational program development, EBLO is now a Baltimore institution with a clear path to continued growth.
