Organization description:
For more than 40 years, New Mexico Foundation has worked to improve the quality of life for all residents of New Mexico. The only statewide foundation, NMF was started in 1983 by a small group of dedicated , visionary volunteers who believed in the power of philanthropy as a tool for inspiring creative, community-based change and prosperity. NMF has distinguished itself as a leader in philanthropy. Our progressive, grassroots approach to building stronger communities empowers community members to collaborate on critical issues by tapping into local resources and discovering the strength in themselves.
