LCF is proud to see our Latino Nonprofit Accelerator recognized as a sector model! Thank you to The LeadersTrust for lifting up the critical importance of fundraising. Over the past decade, we’ve consistently heard from our leaders that fundraising challenges keep them up at night. Our Accelerator was created in direct response to this urgent need. ??

Yes! It’s time to bring fundraising out from the shadows and into the spotlight where it belongs. So proud that we invested in capital campaigns & sabbaticals via the Latino Power Fund at the Latino Community Foundation. I will never forget making those emotional calls to our leaders... there were so many tears. We created the Latino Nonprofit Accelerator to give leaders the support they need to break free from the isolation & exhaustion of fundraising. Glad to see it being lifted up as a model. Thank you Linda Wood and everyone at the The LeadersTrust.
