Alamogordo Nonprofits and Charities

I started volunteering at Capped earlier this year. <br>The miracles I have seen with cancer survivors and others that have come in for services is a huge inspiration. My spirits are lifted when I see people recover and grow stronger.<br>I myself have benefitted from the different programs which have helped me to get more centered.<br>The labrinth project is amazing.<br>Tresa has put so much hard work and love into this project. She is working to make it accessible to people with disabilities. When I walk it, I feel rejuvenated and balanced. I stabilize and feel peace each time.<br>Capped has made my life worthwhile and I feel blessed to be able to volunteer here.<br>

Together we forever change our community, with every dollar and every hour donated. The United Way of Otero County (www.uwoterocounty.org) has been bringing the people, businesses, nonprofits and local government together for the past 50 years in southern New Mexico. Their mission is to impact the community in the areas of Education, Health and Income Stability. I first volunteered for the organization in 2011 when I was asked to be on their Funds Allocations Committee. It is a committee made up of 14-18 community volunteers that help to determine how to divide up the non-designated money that was raised through the campaign. The reason it was so powerful for me was because I never realized what all our local non-profits did, the gaps that they were filling and the support the United Way was able to give them, monetarily and through advocating and bringing people together. Over a 3 night period we heard from each of the agencies, their stories and missions were heartwarming and made me smile, but their need brought tears to my eyes and when it came down to it and we didn't have enough money to support each agency the way they needed, it was heartbreaking. That experience changed me, I knew we needed to raise more money and find more volunteers to help change the future of our county, It was so powerful to me that I now work to raise money and awareness for the United Way of Otero County and advocate for the local nonprofits that work together with us to help our community to grow and thrive. I know that my efforts in partnership with so many great people is making a huge difference and changing lives forever. In fact last year we raised enough money to give each agency 100% of what they were requesting for the first time ever in our history. I love bringing people together and making an impact on county and beyond. #MyGivingStory grows exponentially every hour, everyday. #LiveUnitedOtero
