Oaxaca Initiative Fund

The Oaxaca Fund Initiative is a two-year bi-national fundraising effort between the Fundación Comunitaria Oaxaca (FCO-Oaxaca Community Foundation) and the International Community Foundation

Every dollar raised will be matched 1:1 by the Ford Foundation up to a maximum of $300,000 USD.

The Oaxaca Fund Initiative aims to address the root causes of Oaxaca’s ongoing political crisis by attending to social inequalities and improving the quality of life for its marginalized citizens.

International Community Foundation and FCO believe that the only way to cultivate productive communities, curtail out-migration, and build democracy in regions like Oaxaca is by fostering grassroots economic development opportunities in the most marginalized and remote areas of the state.
