Latino Community Foundation
The Latino Community Foundation was founded in 1989 under the premise of being an organization that would help Hispanics and Latinos help themselves. Founded by Mr. Hugo Morales, because of the rapidly growing population of Hispanics and Latinos in the US, the organization is an invaluable resource to the Hispanic/Latino community of California. There are 38.8 million Hispanics and Latinos in the U.S., who represent a population growth in excess of 10% in two years. California is home to the majority of U.S. Hispanics and Latinos: 11 million Hispanics and Latinos, 1/3 of California's population and 1/3 of the U.S. Hispanic/Latino population. Hispanics and Latinos are rapidly immersing themselves into the market economy, housing sector, public education, and health care spheres of the United States. The dynamic growth of the Hispanic population requires leaders that understand the issues affecting U.S. Hispanics and Latinos. Therefore, the Hispanic/Latino Community Foundation “endeavors to support Hispanics and Latinos in building a strong future though personal, academic, and financial development”. The Latino Community Foundation partners with, and advertises, organizations which it feels are committed to helping create solutions to problems within the Hispanic/Latino community. Some of the affiliated organizations are:
==Latino Children and Youth Initiative==
The Latino Community Foundation based out of San Francisco will engage Hispanic/Latino-led organizations, corporations, foundations, other private organizations, and government institutions in a collaborative effort to address the critical issues facing our young families with children ages 0–5. The program began in 2008 and hopes to raise and award at least $1 million Hispanic/Latino-based, youth serving, nonprofit organizations in the greater Bay Area.
Of the over 6 million children attending California public schools, almost half are Hispanic/Latino. About 25% of Hispanic/Latino children enrolled in K-12 in California Public Schools are identified as "Limited English Proficient (LEP)". There is an enormous necessity for literacy programs in the Hispanic/Latino community, both for children and parents alike. Fewer than 50% of Hispanic/Latino children five years old or younger have a mother with a high school diploma. The Latino Children and Youth Initiative works improve these statistics and increase the number of children that are healthy and prepared for school success through a variety of comprehensive approaches and programs.
