About Somos Healthcare Providers
A $250,000 grant to The Alfred E Smith Memorial Foundation for the 76th Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner is the largest recent award on file for Somos Healthcare Providers Inc. That single gift sits alongside a pattern of sponsorships and program support across health, community, and cultural organizations. The foundation gave $100,000 to Mariano Rivera Foundation for program support in 2024, and another $100,000 to Vacation Is A Right Foundation Inc. for program support the same year. It also supported Dominican Medical Dental Comm Outreach Society, Dominican Foundation of Sport in NY Inc, and Montefiore Medical Center, showing a mix of community-facing events and service-oriented grants. Its giving reaches organizations tied to Dominican, Cuban, and broader Hispanic communities, as well as food, housing, transportation, child care, and community health work. Recent awards also include support for disaster recovery in Puerto Rico and scholarship-related fundraising. The grant list suggests a funder that combines event sponsorship with direct program support, often through local nonprofits, cultural institutions, and health-oriented groups.
