Frankie Miranda

President and CEO

Hispanic Federation

Frankie Miranda is the first openly gay president and

CEO of the Hispanic Federation (HF), the nation’s premier Latino non-profit membership organization. He took the helm of HF in December of 2019, shortly before

COVID-19 was declared a national emergency.

Frankie has worked rapidly to address the urgent needs of Latino communities and Latino-serving nonprofits as

they faced the disproportionate effects of the pandemic.

During the pandemic, he grew the organization’s

programming while providing over $33.5 million in COVID-related grants to more than 500 nonprofits in 41 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia.

Since joining HF in 1998, he has played a key role in

expanding the organization’s operations while also establishing critical programs that support hundreds of

thousands of Latinos. Frankie launched disaster relief and resiliency projects in Puerto Rico that

expanded the island’s reliance on renewable energy and revitalized the coffee industry, a key sector

of the local economy. He also established the Advance Change Together (ACT) Initiative, a program

designed to empower organizations that support the Latinx LGBTQ+ communities. He also oversees HF’s annual gala, which now raises more than $3 million annually.

Frankie sits on the external Comcast Corporate DEI Advisory Council and is a trustee of Fundación

Banco Popular. He holds a BA in Political Science from the University of Puerto Rico and an MA in

Performance Studies from New York University.

Frankie lives in Queens with his husband Ricardo

and cat Valentina.
