Education

We believe that a quality education is the single most important investment we can make in Latino communities. To that end, HF offers educational programs that support students and their families at every stage.

Immigration

Since 1990, HF has worked relentlessly to protect and advance immigrant rights. Over the years, we have become a national advocate for progressive immigration reforms and provider of immigrant services.

Health

HF is a national leader in addressing Latino health disparities by increasing access to affordable and quality healthcare as well as providing grants to nonprofits that improve health outcomes in communities of color.

Latinx LGBTQ+ Advocacy and Empowerment

We are committed to protecting and expanding the rights of the Latinx LGBTQ+ community and are taking steps to strengthen the Latinx LGBTQ+ nonprofits that serve as critical lifelines for our communities.
