Types of Grants
- Unrestricted Grants
- The standard grant is unrestricted — meaning you determine the best use of the funding.
- Targeted Grants
- These grants address unique (often one-time) expenses and may require extra documentation. Basic qualifications are the same as for an Unrestricted Grant.
- Token Grants
- Nonprofits that don’t meet the eligibility criteria, but align with the program’s spirit, may receive a $500 annual grant.
Eligibility Criteria
- Nonprofits, classified as public charities and working in New Mexico to improve life quality or the environment may qualify.
- Token Grants may also apply to groups who have applied, but not yet received 501(c)3 status and are working through a fiscal sponsor. In these cases, the fiscal sponsor must complete the application and meet the grant requirements. They should specify your organization as how they intend to use the grant. A copy of your signed sponsorship agreement must accompany the application.
Program Exclusions
- Organizations that fail to comply with government regulations are excluded.
- Research-focused entities, faith-based programs, grant-giving, lobbying and political organizations are not eligible.
- Funding is not provided for capital expenses, scholarships, debt retirement, travel or meeting costs.
- Organizations with an annual income exceeding $10 million or a net worth greater than 20 million are generally excluded. For national or regional organizations these ceilings are based solely on New Mexico financials.
