Centro Hispano wins $10,000 at Transformations event

Nadia Imafidon — and her charity, Centro Hispano — walked away the big winners at the recent Transformations charity gala.

Imafidon is a magazine editor at Sunflower Publishing, which, like the Journal-World, is owned by The World Company. As part of her win at the pageant, $10,000 will be donated to Centro Hispano, which serves the health, educational and social needs of Latino families in Douglas County.

Imafidon’s Transformations consultant Kevin Richardson, also known by his stage name Monique Heart, will receive a $500 donation made in his name to the Kansas City Anti-Violence Project.

The fifth annual event was held Jan. 23 at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St.
