The Latino Donor Collaborative.
The Latino DonorCollaborative is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to reshaping the perception of Latinos as part of the American social mainstream. We are self-funded and independent, and created by an accomplished group of Latino national leaders that generously donate their time to promote friendly high-level dialogue, with the goal of finding best ways to grow revenue and market share – by targeting and serving the Latino audiences.
We do this through a non partisan agenda that includes outreach to influential people in media, advertising, politics, corporate America, and civil society by confronting stereotypes with data that brings understanding and appreciation of the actual roles being played by Latinos in society, politics, and commerce. The board is passionate about empowering every Latino to be the best they can be, and know that by empowering Latinos, they create a rich, united, and more powerful United States of America.

Our new 2026 LDC U.S. Latino Economic Impact report.
Produced with the research partner W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University, our new report on U.S. Latino economic impact shows how U.S. Latino income, spending and GDP are all growing quickly. U.S. Latino Gross Domestic Income reached $3.4 trillion in 2024, while Latino household consumption reached $2.8 trillion. Additionally, in 2024, the U.S. Latino economy reached $4.4 trillion. If measured as its own country, it would be the fourth-largest economy in the world, growing faster than any major economy on earth, including China.
For CEOs, investors, policymakers, marketers, and anyone trying to understand where the U.S. economy is headed, this report makes the point clearly: you cannot understand America’s economic future without understanding U.S. Latinos.
The report’s findings were featured on CNBC’s Squawk Box, where Sol Trujillo, Chairman and Co-Founder of the LDC, discussed what the data means for investors and policymakers assessing where U.S. economic growth is headed.
