The Mescalero Apache Tribe owns and operates both the Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort and Casino and Ski Apache Ski Resort, as well as other Reservation based enterprises. As a courtesy to Reservation visitors and our guests, we have included as part of this site a downloadable Mescalero Apache Cultural Brochure, should you have an interest in familiarizing yourself with our history, traditions and the current vision of our Tribe.
The Mescalero Tribe and Inn of the Mountain Gods are dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of those that are most in need. It is our mission to strengthen the communities in which we live and serve. Our goal is to provide contributions to organizations and programs primarily within our neighborhoods and those beyond that support Native American tribes, human services, community development, diversity, education and the environment.
To be considered for a donation or sponsorship, you must complete a donation application. All requests will be screened and reviewed by the Community Relations Committee. In making determinations on contributions requests, the Committee places emphasis on well-managed non-profit organizations and programs. Due to the volume of requests received, donation requests for auction or raffle items must be submitted at least 30 days prior to the date the donation is needed.
Sponsorship requests should be submitted by October for consideration in the following year. We will respond to all requests with the decision of the committee within 6-8 weeks of review. Only one submission will be considered per organization per calendar year.
