With a specific focus on Hispanic nonprofits, #LatinxGive enhances the visibility and bridges the gap between funders, supporters, and the Latinx community, globally.

CONVENING AND ENGAGING

We serve as a hub for our Silicon Valley leaders and community to convene and engage. Together, we can pool the will-power, resources, and financial support to reverse some of the negative trends identified in the 2018 Silicon Valley Latino Report Card. With the common interest shared by Silicon Valley residents in wanting the highest quality of life for our families and children, we stand together to make a difference where we live.
