Can you believe that it has been fifteen years of New Mexico Appleseed? That seems impossible. There are no words to explain how proud I am of this work and how grateful I am for your active and generous support.

New Mexico Appleseed's work is a magic recipe of focused moral intention, academic-level research, and highly-nuanced strategy. We still need your help. We will probably always need your help. We don't take government money so we can keep our hands clean and our values intact. This only makes our work stronger and our impact bigger. The best part of my job has been seeing how generous our community is. I know that when I ask for your help, you will be there -and you always have been.

Your support this year is truly necessary. As I have said every year for the past fifteen years, I promise to make you proud that you support New Mexico Appleseed

All my love and gratitude,

Jenny

At least 25% of New Mexico’s children have these items on their wishlist:

Electricity
Enough to eat
A regular and safe place to live
Support services that help
Access to money for basic needs

No matter where you look in our state, the impact of generations of needlessly lost potential and trauma can be seen. And, there is only one way to fix that: systems change. And that, thankfully, is what New Mexico Appleseed does best.

The only way we are able to have the impact that we do is through donor support. Please give generously to support this important work and help the thousands of children in New Mexico live the life they deserve.

In every community, some have more and some have less—however, everyone should have enough.

In New Mexico, over 25% of the children have a wishlist that probably looks like the one here. It's absurd, it's heartbreaking, it's unnecessary, but it's also fixable.

Here at Appleseed, we won’t stop fighting until every child in New Mexico gets everything they deserve—stability, opportunity, resources and equality to reach their potential.

Give to New Mexico Appleseed to help now and for generations to come. The only way forward is through systems change. And, that is what we do at New Mexico Appleseed.

From all of us at New Mexico Appleseed, thank you!
