Fueling Futures:
✨The Power of Your Support in Workforce Development Programs✨

During this holiday season, in the spirit of giving, we ask that you please keep the National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) in mind when making end-of-the-year giving contributions. NHMC is a Section 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization. All donations are deemed tax-deductible.

NHMC seeks to educate and increase Latine visibility from policy work in Washington, D.C., to media advocacy work in Hollywood, where NHMC collaborates, creates, and connects Latine talent with the entertainment industry.

Your support will allow us to build on our shared successes in NHMC’s workforce development programs, such as our Careers in Entertainment Youth Program. The program allows high school students the opportunity to be introduced to diverse careers in the entertainment industry through engaging workshops led by guest speakers in multiple entertainment fields. Students and mentors together fostered a community of empowerment and exploring passions and potential in the media industry.

Your contribution will also give opportunities to college students through NHMC’s Media & Policy Fellowships throughout the year. Students and recent graduates work directly to support the mission of NHMC. These positions are designed for individuals at a range of levels and include professional development, technical training, and mentorship. Fellows' work focuses on a range of areas, including telecommunications policy, media advocacy, communications, and more. We have established a successful pipeline where former fellows have proceeded to work in the entertainment industry, government offices, and technology companies.

National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) is a 40+ year old 501(c)(3) non-profit, nonpartisan, civil and human rights organization that was founded to eliminate hate, discrimination, and racism toward Latino and marginalized communities.

We advance Latino visibility and influence from the halls of Washington, D.C., to the studios of Hollywood. Through our media advocacy and workforce development initiatives, NHMC creates spaces where diverse creators can connect, collaborate, and thrive. Our Series Scriptwriters Program, Latinx Stream Showcase, Creators Networking Program, Careers in Entertainment Youth Program, and Media Advocacy Fellowships serve as both incubators and pipelines, preparing the next generation of storytellers, advocates, and industry leaders. Through mentorship, education, networking opportunities, and direct access to entertainment executives, these programs help transform emerging talent into lasting industry voices while expanding authentic representation across media.

We lead the work to eliminate online hate and disinformation across media platforms. We advocate in the space of Artificial Intelligence when it intersects with civil & human rights, including making sure Latino-Interest and children’s protections are included in AI initiatives and implementations. We advocate for the Affordable Connectivity Program, Lifeline Program, Net Neutrality protections, and closing the digital divide for Latino and other marginalized communities. NHMC works in partnership with other social justice organizations to safeguard democracy in the United States of America.

NHMC is a not-for-profit, and provides equal opportunities to all individuals without regard to race, religion, national origin, disability, age, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or expression, veteran status, or any other status protected by law.
