About
The Fay Shwayder Foundation is a Santa Fe-based nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing civic engagement throughout Northern New Mexico. Working in the Santa Fe region, the foundation focuses on strengthening the capacity of communities to participate meaningfully in the decisions that affect their lives.
Civic engagement work holds particular importance in New Mexico, where diverse communities have historically faced barriers to political participation and representation. Building trust in civic institutions and creating pathways for residents to have a voice in local governance strengthens the democratic fabric of the state and ensures that policy decisions reflect the needs and priorities of all New Mexicans.
As a registered 501(c)(3) public charity, the Fay Shwayder Foundation qualifies donors to make tax-deductible contributions. Community support proves essential for nonprofit organizations working on civic issues, enabling them to sustain their programs and expand their reach across the region.
