WHY GIVE?
NUESTRA TIERRA
LOCAL
Locally, we are honored to continue protecting land at our home base—Las Cruces, New Mexico. Our community has worked together for over a decade now to make the La Mancha Wetlands Restoration Project what it is today. This small pocket of year-round water alongside the Rio Grande is a perfect example of community-led conservation in action. Help us continue making La Mancha a place where our community, human and all other living beings, can enjoy a healthy river habitat.
NUESTRA TIERRA
REGIONAL
Nuestra Tierra started the Monumental SHIFT Coalition as a way to create more national monuments in the U.S. that honor the leadership of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) communities. As a founding coalition member, we were instrumental in the Castner Range National Monument designation in El Paso, Texas and continue to invest in and push regional conservation campaigns across the finish line!
NUESTRA TIERRA
NATIONAL
Over the last two years, Nuestra Tierra has led the Outdoor F.U.T.U.R.E. (Fund for Underrepresented, Tribal, Urban, & Rural Equity) Initiative, which builds the public and political momentum for the creation of a NATIONAL outdoor opportunity and equity foundation. Inspired by NM's Outdoor Equity Fund, this fund will drive federal and private funds to to states, tribes, and national organizations to support programs that increase access, representation, and meaningful participation in the outdoors for youth and their families. Help us make the Outdoor F.U.T.U.R.E. a reality!
