Esperanza is an agency where contributions are stewarded with honesty, where impact is maximized, and where your partnership is valued.

Your contributions make it possible for Esperanza to sustain crucial services that help individuals build assets, to expand access to more clients, and to ensure that programs supported by government and other sources of funding is maximized to provide the best service to the community.

Our Stewardship Philosophy:
    •  Esperanza places priority on projects that have the potential for self-sufficiency
       over projects that are short-term responses to need.
    •  We are focused on filling gaps to make programs culturally relevant.
    •  We look to expand and preserve programs and services with proven outcomes.

Your gift can impact our programs and services in the following ways:

Education:
    •  Scholarships for high school students to advance experiential 
        learning internships or attending college
    •  Cataloguing and building up the Esperanza College library books collection
    •  Supporting future investments in a high school gym

Community Development
    •  Underwriting cost for counseling workshops
    •  Empowering local business owners to advance the marketability of our 
       neighborhood corridor
    •  Making new properties green friendly and affordable

Advocacy
    •  Support new initiatives such as our Climate Initiative or Immigration Work
    •  Communications and production of resources that are distributed 
       to agencies nation-wide

Workforce Development

       may use funds to expand services for non-welfare clients who are also in
       need of quality training and job preparation.

    •  Ensuring continuation of our Capacity Institute
