ALBUQUERQUE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

For individuals, families and private foundations, Albuquerque Community foundation offers efficient stewardship of philanthropic dollars, professional grantmaking and monitoring, and the most generous tax benefits provided by law. To maximize the effect of donations, less than 2% of the Foundations assets go to investment and administrative costs.

As an enduring source of income for the community's ever-changing needs, our community foundation is actually the only philanthropic entity concerned with the whole community: its social, cultural and education needs; its way of life, its values and the institutions that sustain it; its past and its future.

A 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization, ACF provides leadership in the community by encouraging philanthropy, identifying and exploring important needs, and promoting the establishment of permanent endowments. The Foundation's competitive grant and scholarship programs strive to meet existing and emerging community needs.
