How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Cultural Preservation Through Grantmaking
    methodology: cultural_preservation_through_grantmaking
    By providing financial support to artists of Cuban descent living outside of Cuba, we sustain and promote Cuban cultural heritage and artistic expression, because economic barriers often prevent diaspora artists from fully developing or sharing their work.
