Our world is our community. It’s the place where we live, and also the place we continue to feel part of, despite distance. Sometimes it is a community defined not by geography, but by our commitment to its progress; not by borders but by the tug of having roots in two worlds.

If you are a grant-making foundation, an individual donor, a contributing hometown association, or a corporation; or if your organization is willing to commit energy, creativity and resources to developing your community of origin…

…then Hispanics in Philanthropy (HIP) and the Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF) of the Inter-American Development Bank can help leverage your investments and skills through the program

Promoting Diaspora and Local Support for Productive Initiatives

This program aims to promote economic opportunity across borders through productive initiatives in Argentina, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico and Nicaragua, creating impact that is both positive and lasting in communities affected by high levels of migration.
