We offer tailored corporate volunteering programs designed to strengthen your company's social impact while supporting vulnerable populations. These opportunities include:

1. In-kind contributions and events. Activity Timeline: 2-4 weeks for collection, 1 day for the event. Company employees organize an internal collection based on needs identified by our organization, such as school supplies, clothing and shoes in children’s sizes, or toys. On a meaningful date, staff members visit a children’s home to deliver the items and host a celebration with the children.

2. Infrastructure improvements. Activity Timeline: 1 day. Employees visit the facilities of a partner organization to carry out previously identified improvement projects, bringing required supplies such as paint, tools, trees, shovels, or construction materials.

3. Institutional development. Activity timeline: To be defined on a case-by-case basis. Company employees volunteer their professional expertise to address organizational challenges aligned with their area of specialization. Identified needs may include communication strategies, website or social media management, accounting, administration, logistics, human resources, or legal and tax advisory services.

Key Considerations:

• Validated organizations: The Foundation collaborates exclusively with other nonprofit organizations that have a proven track record of impactful work for underserved population groups such as children and youth, people with disabilities, the elderly and families. We prioritize proximity, safety, accessibility, and alignment with the company’s desired focus areas.

• Administrative fee: To ensure professional coordination that meets both company objectives and high logistical standards, the Foundation requires an administrative fee that is determined depending on the complexity of the activities and time required for planning and implementation. In return, a tax-deductible receipt (CFDI) will be issued to the company.

• Infrastructure projects: For infrastructure improvements, the company must provide the required materials and supplies based on a budget and needs list provided after site assessments and project approval.

These corporate volunteering opportunities offer meaningful engagement for employees while making a direct, lasting impact on the lives of those in need.
