Devasthali Family Foundation Fund
The Devasthali Family Foundation Fund reflects the donors' passion for the arts and compassion for humanity. The fund provides grants in the following areas:
ARTS
In southern New Mexico, a lot of artistic talent exists but programs in the arts are often not funded or greatly under-funded. The purpose of the Devasthali Family Foundation Fund art granting is to help art organizations showcase the work of local artists in a way that increases the impact of art in southern New Mexico.
EDUCATION
The purpose of the Devasthali Family Foundation Fund education granting is to support education in general and higher education in particular. The family feels that private sector support is essential for helping programs and organizations whose mission is to help students achieve their full potential. The emphasis is on programs, vocational schools and community colleges that help create an educated work force in the southern New Mexico region.
ELDER CARE
The purpose of the Devasthali Family Foundation Fund elder care granting is to provide help to people that are providing care to their elderly parents or relatives.
