ever Stop G r i n d i n g Impact is doing just that, grinding, networking and collaborating with the community on its forthcoming Third Annual Toy Drive on December 21st and will also be participating in the IE Tour of Toys on December 22nd. Although both of the toy drives mentioned
above are located in Rialto, they are open to all across the Inland Empire.
“Registration is required and children must be present for Never Stop Grinding Impact’s Third Annual Toy Drive on December 21st. I also want to invite families who are in need to register and if you miss the NSG toy drive registration or if
you’re still in need of more toys, I invite you to IE Tour of Toys, which will be held the very next day on December 22nd, also in Rialto,” said NSG Impact Founder and CEO Darious Harris.
At NSG Impact’s Third Annual Toy Drive 4,000 toys will be distributed, and San Bernardino Public Health will be distributing Covid-19
vaccinations to children five and up, booster shots, and monkeypox vaccinations to children ages six and up; and IEHP members who receive a vaccination will receive a $50 gift card.
Harris, who says that as a child he remembers Christmas being his favorite time of the year, has always understood that was not the case for
everyone.
“As a kid, I always looked forward to Christmas, it was my favorite time of the year. But, I came from a two parent household and always had gifts under the tree. For many of my cousins, friends, and classmates, I knew that wasn't the case,” continued Harris. Toy drive, cont. on next

doors December 31st, owners will retire
By Manny Sandoval
ince the news broke about Las Cuatro Milpas closing its doors, there has been a lot of chatter around San Bernardino and the Inland community regarding why the current owners are closing the business instead of handing it off to the next generation. Well, handing the business off is precisely what happened to the current owner Norma Munios, who was gratefully given the business by her father, Enrique Mata, in 1988.
Mata acquired the business (located on Sixth Street at the time) in February 1968 from its original owner Dona Conchita, who owned
the business between 1964 and 1967.
Mata was said to have had a keen sense and understanding of how to operate a business. At the same time, his mother, Concepsion, was the queen of cooking, with tons of original recipes, many of which are still being utilized by the beloved restaurant today.
Fast forward to 2022, owners of Las Cuatro Milpas Norma (who began working at 15 making flour tortillas) and Jose Munios are ready to retire and are fortunate enough that each of their four children has a career of their own. Cuatro Milpas, cont. on next pg.
