Thank you to our 2024 Learning Hub facilitators
A year of growth and community
As we approach the end of 2024, we would like to recognize those who have played a significant role in making this year's Learning Hub programming an incredible success. We're so grateful for the support of our amazing facilitators and panel guests, who have contributed to over 48 learning opportunities tailored to New Mexico's nonprofit sector.
We were thrilled to offer a diverse range of programs that catered to the unique needs and interests of New Mexico's nonprofit community. From our foundational courses like Board Fundamentals, Fundraising Immersion, Racial Healing, and the Executive Director Learning Circle, to our new additions like the Federal Grants series and the Real Talk series for Women of Color in the Nonprofit Sector, we strived to provide relevant and impactful learning opportunities. Recognizing the importance of geographic accessibility, we also expanded our reach by hosting nine On the Ground workshops in Española, Las Vegas, Mora, and Taos. These programs allowed us to tap into the local expertise and foster a sense of community among nonprofit professionals in these regions.
In total, we welcomed over 860 participants to our programs, which offered guidance on leadership, board support, fundraising, skill development, and equity. We extend our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to our wonderful facilitators, guest speakers, and panelists:
