The nation's Hispanic immigrants are expected to give away $45 billion in 2006, but most of it will go to their relatives, with little of it donated to nonprofit organizations.

The Westchester Community Foundation hopes to tap into the power of Hispanic giving with The Apoyo Fund, which raises money for local Hispanic organizations. As The Apoyo Fund begins its second round of fundraising, the Westchester Community Foundation seeks more Hispanic donors."
