Meow Wolf
As a certified B Corporation, Meow Wolf is dedicated to doing “business for good” and supporting the communities that support us. When devastating forest fires burned in New Mexico earlier this year, we immediately began reaching out to community partners to offer support. Our employees collected water, hygiene products, and food donations in partnership with the Food Depot and created and distributed almost 300 art kits for children displaced by the fires. Meow Wolf also made a financial donation of $14,470 to the All Together NM Fund, partially by matching all employee donations through the month of May. A joint effort of the New Mexico Coalition of Community Foundations and the Governor's office, the All Together NM Fund is helping those in our state who have been directly impacted by these widespread fires.
Stronger Together: The Impact of Donor Advised Funds
One of the most popular ways community members partner with the Santa Fe Community Foundation is through donor advised funds, which have become the nation’s fastest-growing philanthropic tool for their ease, flexibility, and tax advantages.
The Origin of Dollars4Schools: Creating a Local Helping Hand
In 2010, after attending a Santa Fe Public School board meeting where teachers spoke about the lack of basic supplies in their classrooms, local business owners Pat and Michael French were determined to find a platform to let the public directly help Santa Fe teachers in need. While national resources existed to help teachers lacking classroom supplies, Dollars4Schools (D4S) would be unique in that all funds raised privately would go 100% to meeting local teacher needs.
Piñon Legacy Society: Creating a Lasting Local Impact
The Santa Fe Community Foundation is a valuable resource for donors who want to make a lasting impact in their local community. We spoke with Bud Hamilton and Sherry Parker, two members of our Piñon Legacy Society, about their decision to make a planned gift.
