MAS Comunidad requires financial support from outside the community to thrive. Like many non-profits essential work that maintains programs and services is done behind the scenes. We are a relatively small organization attempting to fill the gaps left by historical economic disinvestment. We are required to prove why what we are witnessing, saying and asking for is necessary and true. While we are actively pursuing government financial initiatives that help us move from dependency to development we have many induvidual community members, organizations, and establishments that are helping us to achieve our goals for the community.
