TCF invests in community by organizing grants, special projects, and advocacy around a vision of a safe and healthy community with a solid economy where all have the opportunity to thrive. 3 | COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP Together we foster sustainable community.

UNM Taos - Adult Learning Center While more than 80% of all Americans believe they want to spend their last days at home, only 24% die (taos.unm.edu/adultlearningcenter) at home. The majority die in hospitals or nursing homes. The end of life often means being attached to machines, pharmaceuticals and often dying with strangers (medical providers) rather than with family members. Having an Advanced Directive in place is one way to better manage this challenge. 8 PHOTO BT GERAINT SMITH Taos Property Foundation Give the gift of real estate.

The Taos Community Foundation and Taos Property Foundation, make donating your property much easier by managing the transaction of the sale while you enjoy the freedom to cultivate your philanthropic dreams.
