The Art of Generosity: Gerard's House

Stories have the power to connect, inspire, and spark meaningful change. That’s why we’re proud to share The Art of Generosity, our new editorial series in partnership with Table Magazine New Mexico that shines a light on the people and organizations shaping the cultural, social, and economic fabric of our region.
The latest feature spotlights Gerard's House, a local nonprofit that supports children and families by providing free bilingual bereavement services to those experiencing the death or separation from a loved one.
As executive director Nicole Maes-Gonzales shares in the story:
“My heart fills when I see kids learning how to support themselves in the future with tools they’ll use over a lifetime. When I think of the ripple effect of how those tools can be extended to partners and community members and that cultural shift, that’s success.”
