Changing Albuquerque's Warzone into God's Playground

albuquerque leadership foundation

“Old men and old women will come back to Jerusalem [Albuquerque], sit on benches on the streets and spin tales, move around safely with their canes – a good city to grow old in. And boys and girls will fill the public parks, laughing and playing – a good city to grow up in.” Zechariah 8:4,5 MSG

We seek to bring together the leaders of good faith and good will throughout Albuquerque to identify, develop and launch efforts to reduce poverty and bring collaboration.  

Joining Leadership Foundations International network allows us to tap into more than 4 decades of experience, Leadership Foundation’s “Wheel of Change" consists of 3 interconnected functions that work together to drive positive and lasting change in cities throughout the world.

Our Vision

By bringing joy into our neighborhood, Albuquerque Leadership Foundation envisions eliminating poverty in Albuquerque and specifically the International District. We will do this by implementing community-based solutions that produce real change in the lives of the neighborhoods we work in including education, support, and community development. We believe this will be accomplished one neighborhood at a time beginning with the Alvarado Neighborhood between Central and Zuni streets one block east of San Mateo.
