Paso del Norte Health Foundation

The Paso del Norte Health Foundation in El Paso, Texas is one of the largest private foundations on the U.S./Mexico border.

The Health Foundation works effectively across these boundaries in partnership and collaboration with other organizations to plan and implement programs that address disease prevention and health education. The main focus of the Health Foundation is to help those within the region who are most in need. To envision the region where all people, regardless of socio-economic status have the knowledge,

resources, and environment they need to live healthy lives. To achieve this, the Health Foundation has developed a creative, pro-active approach to improving the long-term health of the region. Below are the health priority areas of funding:

Healthy Living
Disease Prevention & Management
Health Leadership

Unsolicited grant proposals are not accepted by the Health Foundation. However, when launching a new Request For Proposals (RFP), the Health Foundation offers grant workshops for nonprofit organizations to better understand the purpose of the initiative or program and how to respond to the RFP. Program officers are available to discuss ideas for future programs and welcome suggestions from regional organizations.

The Paso del Norte Health Foundation celebrates the Class of 2026, including students who participated in after-school programs supported through our Healthy Kids initiative! 🎓

Today, we're recognizing graduates from one of our grantees, Friends of Organ Mountains–Desert Peaks , and their Moving Montañas program. With support from PdNHF, the program connects youth to the outdoors through hands-on experiences in the Chihuahuan Desert. 🦎

Programs like Moving Montañas help young people build healthy habits, deepen their connection to the community, and grow into the next generation of leaders and changemakers.

We're proud to see the impact of a community coming together for a better future. Congrats, grads!

🇫🇷 Journée mondiale sans tabac.
🇩🇪 Weltnichtrauchertag.

Education on wheels! 🚭 The Southern New Mexico Teen Mock Bedroom To***co and Drug Prevention Trailer was recently wrapped to reflect its mission: helping families learn about to***co, va**ng, and other substance use prevention.

Partially funded by the Paso del Norte Health Foundation, the trailer debuted in December and now travels to community events throughout southern New Mexico. It offers an interactive experience where participants search a mock teenager's bedroom for hidden va**ng devices and other warning signs.

We're grateful to partner with Action for Healthy Kids and the New Mexico National Guard's Drug Demand Reduction Outreach Team on this important prevention effort!
