Author Gillenwater speaks about U.S.-Mexico border

Saturday, April 11 at 6 pm

We speak with Gil Gillenwater, author of “Hope on the Border,” a book drawn from his decades of work along the U.S.–Mexico border with the Rancho Feliz Charitable Foundation. As the foundation’s founder and president, Gillenwater has helped reimagine border philanthropy since 1987.

Through its work, the organization provides direct financial support to communities along the border and organizes immersive trips that expose service groups and families to the realities of life just south of the border.
