Q&A with Alex Hanna

Nurturing Animal Welfare in New Mexico Through Generosity and Compassion
Carla Freeman's love for people and animals extended beyond her life. She bequeathed a generous legacy gift to the Santa Fe Community Foundation (SFCF), providing endowments for Animal Welfare and establishing it as a field of interest within the Foundation's community grants program. Her bequest continues to support local nonprofit organizations like A Chance of a Lifetime and the Animal Welfare Coalition of Northeastern New Mexico that focus on the care and well-being on animals, ensuring that Carla's compassion for and commitment to her community endure.
