New Mexico Foundation, President and CEO Position

For over 40 years, New Mexico Foundation (NMF) has been supporting people, communities and nonprofits throughout the state as the only statewide community foundation. NMF’s priorities continue to focus on community resilience, health, educational opportunities, rural infrastructure and environmental adaptability. NMF accomplishes these priorities via three primary avenues – build and fund by providing grants and partnering with local and national philanthropic organizations to build programs and provide funding; manage by providing investment management for donor-advised funds and endowments; and support by being a fiscal sponsor to grassroots organizations.

In 2023, NMF awarded more than $3 million in grants to organizations. NMF provides investment management and services for donor-advised funds and agency endowments and currently manages over $50 million in investments for 50 individuals and organizations. Finally, NMF sponsors grassroots organizations as a fiscal agent, ensuring they can focus on their community work while building capacity. NMF provides administrative services and financial oversight to 65 small community organizations.

Moving forward, the Board believes that NMF’s storied history, dedicated Board and staff and state-wide focus are assets and present opportunities for future growth and increased community impact. The new President & CEO will have the extraordinary opportunity to develop and execute a bold new strategic plan and explore the organization’s exciting potential, under the direction of a dedicated and engaged Board of Directors and a staff that is committed to making a difference across the state. NMF is focused on the goals of solidifying the fiscal sponsorships, understanding and upholding the state’s many and varied cultures, primarily Native American, Mexican, Spanish and Anglo. The President & CEO will have the opportunity to strengthen NMF’s philanthropic impact among all New Mexicans, help the organization reach the next level and usher in a new era of successful outcomes and meaningful impact.
