Supporting local organizations

Through our work, we are dedicated to providing essential support for our community. We are often able to help with a range of services from funding and marketing to recruiting volunteers or offering our time to help.

Projects that benefit our community often require a lot of volunteer hours and resources. We can help facilitate projects coming to life, through connecting organizations to the help that provide the best results. We want to help your organization get the most out of fundraisers, outreach or whatever the goals of the project may be.

  • We have partnered with Intel and others to provide grant funding for local non-profit organization proposed projects. We can also make occasional donations or assist in covering the costs for some expenses necessary for your project.

  • We have access to designers, printers and some local advertising platforms. We can often produce print media like brochures and postcards to promote local events and projects. We are always happy to add things to the community calendar and share on our social media platforms as well.

  • Our board is made up of volunteers with a wide range of expertise. Each member is passionate about serving their community. We are happy to help any way we can, or connect your group to more volunteers for events, fundraisers and more!

  • Have an idea, but not sure where to start? We can help build strategies for your project.

  • If we can't help you directly through our organization, we can help connect you to someone who can. We have several partnerships with entities with funding or specific expertise for your project.

  • Hosting a fundraiser while keeping up with the needs of your organization? We are happy to help! We have online platforms that can host auctions, access to marketing platforms and volunteers who are happy to help sell tickets or collect donations.

Project: The Storybook Garden at the Corrales Community Library. Several local organizations collaborated to donate their time and build a ceramic tile mural, showcasing the children’s favorite storybook characters. Master Gardners worked with kids to plant and maintain a vegetable garden that is accessible to the public. Children now help tend the garden and get to take food home when there are vegetables and fruit to harvest!

CMS was able to help support the collaboration of local organizations and assist in paying for the materials used to build the mural and other structures in the garden. The unveiling of the space also aligned with CSA’s first Art in the Park in several years! A big thank you to all of the hardworking volunteers and organizations that made this community project possible for future generations to enjoy!

  • ¡Viva Corrales!

    OUTREACH, AWARENESS, MARKETING, VOLUNTEERS

    The goal of this year's signature event was to highlight and promote all of the existing events led by local organizations that showcase all of the things that make Corrales special and benefit the community. In addition to promotions and helping get the word out about all of the amazing work that is done by these organizations, we were able to cover some of the costs needed by each.
