The PNM PowerKick

PNM is proud to partner with New Mexico United and generate excitement about support for local nonprofits. We know that strong nonprofits are key to a thriving New Mexico and while delivering power is at the core of PNM, investing in our community is a critical piece of the company's values.

Peter Trevisani, President, CEO, and majority owner of New Mexico United, said New Mexico United is fueled by a passion for community, and The PNM PowerKick is another opportunity to bring New Mexicans together for a unique halftime challenge that benefits local nonprofits in need of the support PNM is graciously providing.

At halftime of each New Mexico United home game, a lucky fan was selected from the stands to attempt three goals that earned money for nonprofits. The first kick was from the 6-yard line and earned that night's nonprofit a $500 donation from PNM, the second kick was from the penalty spot and earned a $750 donation, and the final kick was from the 18-yard box and earned a $1,250 donation. If kicks are missed, that night's nonprofit still received a minimum $1,500 PNM donation. 

The 10 local nonprofits PNM proudly funded were:

• Santa Fe Habitat for Humanity (April 15)
• Horizons (April 29)
• Keres Children¿s Learning Center (June 17)
• Junior Achievement (June 21)
• Transgender Resource Center of NM (June 24)
