The Marshall L. and Perrine D. McCune Charitable Foundation is dedicated to enriching the health, education, environment, and cultural and spiritual life of New Mexicans. The Foundation memorializes its benefactors through proactive grantmaking that seeks to foster positive social change. The McCune Charitable Foundation funds projects that benefit the state of New Mexico in the areas of arts, economic development, education, environment, health, and social services. Grants for specific projects, operating expenses, and capital expenses are considered. It is the Foundation's vision that every New Mexican will have a well-paying job which he or she enjoys, with all the requisite health benefits, and have the opportunity for ownership of a home. As the first and only majority minority state in the United States, New Mexico can demonstrate the full social and economic potential of culturally diverse communities, both nationally and internally, by emphasizing the specific strengths and benefits of societies that embrace and leverage their unique combination of culture and experience. The Foundation has undertaken studies with the help of those with expertise in different areas to determine what obstacles exist to optimize business success. The purpose and objectives of this program are very specific in nature. The distinct subject matter of this funding opportunity necessitates a thorough review of the official program guidance referenced at the URL provided in the contact section of this summary.
