Support Southwest Creations

Since 1994, Southwest Creations Collaborative has championed dignified employment and educational opportunities that foster multigenerational prosperity, catalyzing the cycle of generation wealth.

Our impact is far-reaching: over the years, we’ve created living-wage jobs for more than 250 women, provided on-site childcare to support working parents, and offered programs that build skills in leadership, English, and GED preparation. This family-centered approach is integral to our mission, ensuring that as parents work, they know their children are safe and nearby.

Our Hacia: Toward the University program, which supports families from pre-K through college, has helped over 16,000 families since 2010. This year, we served 634 households, 93% of which include a first-generation college student. With a high school graduation rate of 100% and a college acceptance rate of 95%, Hacia empowers families to envision a college path for their children.

Thank you for your enduring commitment to our mission. I look forward to your continued partnership as we enter our next chapter in 2026 and beyond.

With gratitude,  

Susan Matteucci
Executive Director, Southwest Creations
