Our Mission:
To build the capacity of community based organizations serving high-risk Latino youth & families.
Our Methods:
Find – We seek out grassroots organizations that successfully serve Latino youth and families.These grassroots groups know the needs of their communities from the inside-out and bring a unique combination of sensitivity, compassion, and effectiveness.
Fund – We provide grant support to these organizations.
As a national intermediary nonprofit, we “get to give” by accessing federal, state and philanthropic funding. Through a competitive process we re-grant funds to community-based organizations in various high-poverty locations across the country.
Form – We provide technical assistance and capacity-building training.
We provide expertise to help our sub-grantees shape their programs and solidify their infrastructure for long-term sustainability.
Feature – We promote the work of our sub-grantees and highlight their accomplishments.
We help tell their stories to the public; exposing them to more prospective funders about the excellent services these groups have to offer.
