2024 Annual Holiday Appeal

Supporting Education, Improving Health, Enhancing Human Services

Welcome to the Las Campanas Community Funds Annual Appeal for Community Grants. We are excited about the opportunity to work with all of you to provide grants to Santa Fe area nonprofits who serve those in need. Over the past several years, your generosity has enabled a strong community grants program to grow from $203,000 in 2020 to $850,000 in 2023. This significant increase in grants is having a very positive impact in our community and is a striking testament to the extraordinary generosity of members of The Club at Las Campanas.

The LCCF Board continues to recommend focus in the areas of education, health, and human services as these are high areas of need in the Santa Fe area. The number of people in our community facing educational inequity, lack of access to any health care at all, and financial challenges resulting in homelessness or food insecurity is truly startling.

This appeal is the beginning of our annual fundraising campaign for LCCF Community Grants. A record number of 34 organizations are being recommended for grants this year. The goal of the 2024 appeal is to raise sufficient funds to award $1,000,000 in grants with 45% participation rate by Las Campanas members.

Human Services

“I would not be where I am today, in my grief journey, if I had not attended Bob’s group at Gerard’s House. Because of the group I actually feel like I have a future to look forward to now."
