It was a beautiful few days listening, learning, and building connections with our partners in the Northern Central Coast! 🤝 The Latino Community Foundation team spent the day our community partners listening to their hopes and dreams. Together we discussed how philanthropy can support the innovative solutions they are driving!💡 From LCF’s capital campaign investments to our economic justice investments in land trust and land ownership models, we witnessed the power of grassroots leaders. Their love for community is breaking cycles and healing this generation to create a new reality for Latino families.🧑🧑🧒🧒 LCF lives for these days! It was an honor and a privilege to learn from our leaders. We will be back real soon! @santa_cruz_barrios_unidos, @kitchentableadvisors, @albafarmers, @digitalnest, @jobyaviation, @mujeresenaccion831, @cfmco, @sccvonline, @ranchocieloyouth, @youth4alliance

Great letter to the editor in the @latimes by @christianarana23 .
Our #PoderArte partners at @artists_ink know that careers in art hold the keys to various job prospects and aren’t just a hobby! This is why we are grateful to have been able to launch our PoderArte initiative to fuel civic leadership and support California’s creative economy!
Promotoras bring health and wellness to our communities, and it’s time for them to be fairly compensated! Last week, LCF convened partners in the North Bay to discuss investing in our Promotora Cooperative Initiative, a new community-based model that compensates excluded workers, like promotoras, and helps seed equity for their essential work. Our community partners hold the key to helping create labor policies that include all workers and create a just economy!🔑
