Our funding priorities
In addition to providing charitable investment services to donors and nonprofits, the Foundation is committed to addressing the most pressing needs in our community.
Community Leadership
Community leadership starts with you. Join us in increasing donor impact, improving nonprofit performance, and promoting the longterm health of northern New Mexico.
Early Childhood
Early childhood, particularly ages prenatal to three years, is a critical developmental period with a lifelong impact on educational, social, physical, and cognitive development. We work to ensure our youngest and most vulnerable neighbors have the best start in life possible.
Education
Education is about more than what goes on in a classroom; it's also about opening doors to a brighter future. We work to empower our region’s children and youth with educational opportunities that carry them into successful careers and beyond.

LGBTQ+
We believe in justice and equity for all in New Mexico. Join us in fighting discrimination, advancing support, and promoting the health and wellbeing of our friends in the LGBTQ+ community.
