The Art of Generosity: IndigenousWays
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 of our editorial series with Table Magazine shines light on IndigenousWays, a Santa Fe-based nonprofit that offers educational, artistic, and musical programs to serve Native peoples and their supporters, as well as initiatives aimed at promoting cultural awareness, values and traditions.
"As we approach 20 years as an organization, I want to express a bit of gratitude to the community, which is a miracle itself, because of the incredible love and support we receive that allows us to do for the community.”
-Elena Higgins, Executive Director

LGBTQ Grant County
With support from the Envision Fund at Santa Fe Community Foundation, LGBTQ Grant County is strengthening its foundation and expanding year-round programming for LGBTQ+ youth, elders, and allies in rural southwest New Mexico.
Black Men Flower Project
Black Men Flower Project uses flowers as a tool for connection, affirmation, and community-building. In a society that has unnecessarily gendered expressions of care and beauty, even something as natural as flowers can feel off-limits to men. By placing flowers directly into the hands of Black men, the nonprofit challenges those assumptions and create new social permissions for vulnerability, gratitude, and brotherhood.
