\n\u201cCoraz\u00f3n y Generosidad,\u201d an exhibition of original photographs of Denver community leaders and philanthropists, is now on display at the Rudolfo \u201cCorky\u201d Gonzales branch of the Denver Public Library, 1498 Irving Street, Denver. The exhibition continues through November 30.<\/p>\n
Launched as part of National Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs through October 15, \u201cCoraz\u00f3n y Generosidad\u201d celebrates the long legacy of giving among Denver\u2019s Latino Community and features portraits of recognized civic leaders including Bernie and Tim M\u00e1rquez, Rob and Lola Salazar, Luella Chavez D\u2019Angelo, Ruben Vald\u00e9z, and members of LatinasGive!, a new giving circle housed at The Denver Foundation. Representing a diverse range of ages and backgrounds, these donors are noted for their gifts of time, talent, treasure, and testimony to the four pillars of philanthropy.<\/p>\n
The Denver Foundation is a recognized leader in the movement to catalyze philanthropy to advance racial, ethnic, and economic equity. \u201cCoraz\u00f3n y Generosidad\u201d illustrates the Foundation\u2019s belief that community change is especially powerful when the people most impacted by issues lead in identifying and implementing solutions. The pervasive disparities in education, health care, affordable housing, and employment are among the many issues that the Foundation addresses through funding initiatives, community partnerships, and connections with generous donors. These disparities disproportionately affect people of color.<\/p>\n
The Denver Foundation\u2019s core commitment to equity is evident in a number of initiatives, including: Strengthening Neighborhoods, a program that supports resident engagement and resident leadership in addressing community issues with community asset-based solutions; The Inclusiveness Project, which provides resources to help nonprofit organizations become more racially inclusive; Executive<\/p>\n
Directors of Color, a program to build the individual and organizational capacity of nonprofit leaders of color; Nonprofit Internship Program, a paid summer intern program designed to expose undergraduate students to professional and philanthropic opportunities in the nonprofit sector; and Giving Circles for people of color: Denver African American Philanthropists (DAAP), which launched in May 2012; Sisterhood of Philanthropists Impacting Needs (SPIN) and LatinasGive!, both launched in 2015.<\/p>\n
In August, The Denver Foundation received a $200,000 grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to continue its work through the EPIC (Elevating Philanthropy in Communities of Color) initiative.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
