The Hispanic Federation, a national organization, earmarks $1.4 million to address gaps left by SNAP benefit cuts and ongoing food insecurity, says its website.
The Hispanic Federation (HF) was founded in 1990 by a group of visionary Latino leaders in New York, growing from a small collective into a national force. Its current leadership includes President and CEO Frankie Miranda, who took the helm in 2019 and continues to build on its legacy of empowering Latino communities, the site says.
According to a local site, The Hispanic Alliance of Greenville, SC, was spearheaded by a founding group of community members and allies, including Wilfredo León, Lissette Treanor, and Alfred Middleton, who began meeting in the early 2000s. Now, Adela Mendoza is the executive director, and membership has risen over the years to nearly 4,000 today.
The Hispanic Alliance runs Mill Village Farms, which offers weekly produce boxes at a steep discount of $5 with SNAP/EBT card for those in need.
A strong and active community, the Greenville Hispanic Alliance (Aliaza Hispana) hosts various annual events including the La Fiesta gala, the cultural celebrations for Hispanic Heritage Month with concerts and art exhibits, essential Resource Fair, a health, education and legal experience, the Homes for the Holiday tour, with other educational workshops and fitness classes, all aimed at building community and supporting Hispanic culture in the state, according to the site.
