Help El Ranchito Reach Its Goal
To meet the licensing requirements of New Mexico, and to cover the basic needs of a child at El Ranchito de los Ninos, it costs over $37,478 a year per child. This includes everything from food and clothing to education, and maintaining our home. Other items that are neccessary to run a nonprofit organization such as operations and fundraising add additional costs to our total budget. These costs are not included in The Children's Hope Fund.
El Ranchito's goal is to meet expenses and raise $337,300 by the end of the year.
We can reach our goal with your assistance. Won't you help us?
