Nature Niños Featured on New Mexico Living! AGAIN!

We're thrilled to share that Nature Niños New Mexico was recently featured on New Mexico Living! In the interview, we had the opportunity to talk about our mission to connect youth and families with the land, expand outdoor access, and grow the next generation of conservation leaders—right here in New Mexico thanks to the help of Nusenda Credit Union’s Community Rewards Grant.

Every year Nusenda looks to fund local organizations that make a positive impact in our state, organizations like Nature Niños who focus on Education, Healthcare, and Environment & Wildlife. While we are focusing on mitigating the barriers our community can face to getting outside, “We want them to be able to go into these spaces have activities that help them feel connected, not only to themselves, but to their peers that are with them, and to that space.” as Sarah stated during the interview, we also require funding to ensure we can continue working with our local schools, communities, and families. Grants like the Community Rewards Grant, and donations from our supporters help us continue our mission.
