A defining feature of Hispanic Federation Inc is its sustained grantmaking to Latino-serving organizations across the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic, with emergency relief, capacity building, and policy-linked community work all appearing in its recent portfolio. The foundation’s latest grants show repeated support for food assistance and immigration-related services, alongside donor-advised grants that add a separate layer to the giving pattern.

Another is Los Sures in Brooklyn, which received $192,929 in 2023 and $137,878 in 2024 for food assistance. The foundation also backs community infrastructure through grants such as $122,500 to Building One Community in Stamford for the Esperanza Grant and $110,000 to The Resurrection Project in Chicago for an immigration grant. Across these grants, the organization supports Latino nonprofits, immigrant families, and Puerto Rico-based institutions through direct service and organizational support.
