A Quick Reminder About Security
This is our only official website, and any email regarding our gifts will always come from an address ending in @marquez-mascardo.org—no extra characters, no misspellings.
We don’t run lotteries, offer memberships, request donations, or promote investment opportunities. No one connected to the Marquez-Mascardo Family Foundation will ever ask you for payment, your Social Security number, or any passwords as part of gift delivery.
If something feels off or you suspect a scam, please report it at ic3.gov and reportfraud.ftc.gov.
Keeping the Focus Where It Belongs
We spend our time quietly identifying organizations that align with our mission—those working to advance environmental sustainability while fostering economic development in underserved communities. We do this as discreetly as possible to avoid placing any extra burden on nonprofits or pulling them away from their important work. Because of this, we don’t accept unsolicited suggestions for candidates.
To keep the spotlight on the organizations we support, we’ve chosen not to participate in events or media coverage. If you have opportunities for public recognition or media attention, we encourage you to consider passing them along to the incredible organizations doing the work on the ground.
