Thank you to all NAHF members and friends who completed the funding survey distributed by email several weeks ago. As promised, we are providing results of this survey which show the gap between Hispanic community organizations and public funding entities. With recent efforts by the federal government to rely on states to distribute federal funds fairly and appropriately, the survey results are of concern. While many of the respondents have received federal funds, the overwhelming majority believe the access of Hispanic-serving organizations to both federal and state financial resources is extremely limited. Read the complete summary of the survey here. Given this information, it is important that NAHF members: a. raise the awareness of public funders to the value and services Hispanic-serving organizations provide in your community, b. pursue opportunities to build bridges between public funders and Hispanic serving organizations, and c. ask elected officials to ensure that proportionate levels of public funding reach Hispanic communities and those organizations who will serve them best. |
