About the Organizations

Rio Grande Food Project

Rio Grande Food Project (RGFP) is Albuquerque’s largest west side food pantry. Since 1989, it has provided members of the surrounding community free groceries as well as other services and support. It now serves thousands of people every year. In 2019 with the help of US Eagle, RGFP built a community garden to grow fresh fruits and vegetables for community distribution.

Food insecurity and hunger are chronic, present realities for many New Mexican households. As many as 1 in 5 children and 1 in 7 adults may not know where their next meal is coming from.

New Day

New Day was founded in 1976 to offer services and support to Albuquerque youth. New Day works with over 900 young people aged 11-25 who experience marginalization, disconnection, and homelessness every year. Their programs are designed to align with young people’s diverse experiences and needs and they focus on creating spaces that are safe and help young people feel seen and honored.
