The U.S.-Mexico Border Philanthropy Partnership (BPP) is excited to share our story, as we continue to expand our impact along and across the 10 Border State region. BPP supports a network of nearly 300 organizations from academia, business and corporate partners, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and foundations that build prosperity through leadership, collaboration, and philanthropy in the U.S.-Mexico Border region. BPP is the only binational group along and across the 2,000 mile border that unites a vibrant network of national, regional, and local leaders and organizations who are making a difference on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico Border.
Since 2008, among many other accomplishments, our volunteer board of directors and staff have successfully:
- provided education and training on nonprofit best practices to more than8,500 nonprofit volunteer board and staff leaders across the region;
- provided organizational coaching to over 120 organizations in English and Spanish;
- granted over US$150,000 in technical assistance resources to nonprofit organizations and community foundations;
- legally transferred over US$1.2 million in fiscal agency services in support of child services, health, environment, public policy advocacy, and recreation;
- created http://procapacidad.org/ to provide more than 100 Spanish language tools and resources for nonprofit organizations in the Borderlands that to date has received more than 458,000 visits; and
- organized over 40 binational convenings from San Diego/Tijuana to Brownsville/Matamoros to support binational dialogue on critical issues, peer to peer learning, and networking for civil society leaders.
