Firm Foundation Leadership Coalition, Inc. [

FLCI has been recognized for its caring and giving spirit.  If we don't know the answer we'll find it for you, if we don't provide the services we'll get you in touch with one who does.  But, because of being able to be a bridge for our communities, FLCI has been able to gain trust, confidence and interest in various programming that we know we can offer and that are beneficial to our Latino communities-at-large. 

Therefore, FLCI has developed a strategy to be able to incorporate some of the programs that will benefit the organization as well as the people it serves.  We have come to realize that in order to implement those programs, FLCI is going to need funding to create and develop the curriculum for the following programs:

Community/Civic Enhancement - working together to make a difference in the civil life of our Latino communities and developing the combination of skills, knowledge, values, and motivation in order to make that difference. 

Arts, Theatre, Music and Culture - a holistic approach to the entire human-being in order to bring balance into one's life. 

Philanthropy Journalism - being proactive in the nonprofit digital age providing an alternative business model of reporting with the ability to start anew by being creative, innovative and focused on investigative civic journalism.

Latino Youth Empowerment - promoting and educating on self-esteem, building positive communication, goal planning, dating violence awareness, establishing good relationships, community engagement and self-advocacy and using performing arts and theatre as a form of self-expression.

Community Economic Independence - promoting a quality of life in the Latino community by developing training curriculums for small businesses, non-profits, community and faith-based organizations.

Social Justice & Public Policy - promoting education and awareness of policies that affect the Latino communities-at-large. Occasionally using innovative ways such as creative writing of drama scripts, public service announcements and/or socio-drama.

Latinos in Philanthropy - Philanthropy is a voluntary action for enhancing the lives of our communities.  It is the common giving and contributing to the well-being of the public.  Philanthropy deserves the respect and confidence of our constituents and our prospective Gift-Givers who convey their trust on FLCI to use these Gifts responsibly and for the intentions they were received.
