La Liga began its operation with a $200,000 contribution from the Ford<br />

Foundation, and support from Oxfam America as its fiscal sponsor for the first two<br />

years. Ford's seed funding and Oxfam America's administrative support were<br />

fundamental to the strengthening of La Liga. We are incredibly grateful to both<br />

entities, not only for their support during La Liga's beginnings but also for their<br />

continued support of our core programming and initiatives.<br />

Strengthening our administrative and fiscal capacity has been a central goal of<br />

our recent efforts. To this end, we have established important partnerships and<br />

developed links with various allied organizations.<br />

Among other successes we celebrate our designation as a 501(c)3 entity by the<br />

Federal Treasury Department, as well as securing essential funding, either as<br />

operational donations or as contracts for key initiatives.<br />
