Corporate Partnerships

We believe that true impact isn't solely measured in monetary contributions, but in the strength of the bonds we build with one another. While financial support is instrumental to FIFABQ, it is the collective energy of our people that brings our mission to life.

Beyond the Donation
Our corporate partnerships are built on a shared vision. We don't just look for sponsors; we look for active allies. These collaborations represent a holistic commitment to our neighbors, blending resources with real-world action.

Hands-On Impact
The power of our community is most visible when we roll up our sleeves together. From plucking and sorting fresh produce to sharing this work within Central and Northern New Mexico, our partners provide the volunteering hands necessary to ensure fresh food access.

When corporate teams join us under the trees, they aren't just giving back, they are becoming an essential part of the local fabric, proving that food security is a goal we can only achieve side-by-side.

Join In on the Fun!

We welcome groups of all sizes to join our harvests and events: companies, schools, organizations, food distributors, homeschoolers, preservers & more!

Joining a harvest is an incredible opportunity to:

Give back to your community in a direct and meaningful way.

Be a part of the solution to food waste and insecurity.

Harvests will be held on weekend mornings to beat the heat, making it a great way to start your day.

The Aerospace Corporation

We were honored to welcome The Aerospace Corporation’s Albuquerque Office to a South Valley orchard this season, where their team helped harvest nearly 1,000 pounds of apples and pears.

By moving beyond the office and into the trees, Aerospace volunteers directly supported our mission to treat fresh food as a fundamental human right. Their "hands-on" contribution ensured that this massive local bounty reached a variety of community partners and fueled an educational workshops on preservation.

Beyond their physical labor, Aerospace’s generous financial support keeps our mission on fueled. This partnership is a powerful example of how corporate leadership can tackle food insecurity and promote sustainable action.

Nusenda Credit Union

Nusenda Credit Union brought the true meaning of "The Power of WE" to our North Valley orchards this season, mobilizing an incredible volunteer effort across two locations.

Their team’s dedication resulted in the harvest of over 3,000 apples and pears, providing a massive influx of fresh, nutritious fruit for our community partners. This partnership exemplifies Nusenda’s commitment to New Mexico, as they traded office hours for orchard ladders to ensure local abundance reached those facing food insecurity.

By rolling up their sleeves, these volunteers helped bridge the gap between local abundance and community gaps, turning a backyard surplus into thousands of healthy meals. We are deeply grateful for Nusenda’s hands-on leadership in fostering a more sustainable and food-secure Albuquerque.

Sandia Labs

Sandia National Laboratories demonstrated the power of partnership by joining us in Corrales to harvest nearly 600 pounds of fresh apples. This collaboration proves that Sandia’s brilliance extends far beyond the lab and directly into the heart of our community.

By trading their technical tools for picking bags, their team provided the vital "sweat equity" needed to get fresh, nutritious food to local families. This hands-on involvement ensures that local resources are never wasted and that our neighbors have access to the healthy produce they deserve. We are proud to work alongside an institution that values community health as much as scientific discovery.

Their commitment of time and labor truly nourishes the roots of New Mexico.
