New Mexico Cyclists for Wildfire Relief
The Hermit's Peak / Calf Canyon Fire is heartbreaking. The size and scope of this tragedy are unprecedented. Our neighbors are suffering. New Mexico’s robust cycling community has come together to help!
In response to the largest wildfire in our state's history, a group of concerned cyclists created New Mexico Cyclists for Wildfire Relief. Together, they are raising awareness and donating to the Santa Fe Community Foundation's Community Resiliency Fund. 100% of the donations raised will go directly to our funding region of San Miguel and Mora Counties. Grants will support food and water distribution, emergency shelter, cash assistance, and other critical services.
Join our state's cyclist community by giving to the Fund today:

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.
