About Somos Un Pueblo Unido
Somos UN Pueblo Unido’s recent grantmaking centers on workers’ rights advocacy in New Mexico, with repeated support to the same Albuquerque- and Las Cruces-based organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025. The pattern shows a local funder that backs a small set of in-state partners rather than a broad one-time portfolio. In 2025, the foundation awarded $107,316 each to El Centro De Iguadldad Y Derechos and New Mexico Comunidades En Accion Y De Fe (cafe), alongside $102,316 grants to The Ole Education Fund, New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty, and Center for Civic Policy. Those recipients point to a grantmaker focused on labor-related advocacy, legal and policy work, civic policy, and community organizing. The same organizations appear again in 2024 and 2023, including New Mexico Comunidades En Accion Y De Fe (cafe), The Ole Education Fund, El Centro De Iguadldad Y Derechos, New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty, and Center for Civic Policy. That repeated support suggests multi-year relationships built around advancing worker rights, wage justice, and related organizing in New Mexico.

Across these grants, the foundation appears to use workers’ rights as a central frame while supporting legal, civic, and organizing organizations that operate in New Mexico.
