Mission
Fundación Comunitaria del Bajío works with communities in central Mexico
with limited access to critical services, infrastructure, and economic
opportunities.
Many of the men and women in these communities migrate to the United
States to support their loved ones. Migration is an emotional challenge
that separates families and threatens lives. Nearly all of those who
migrate dream to one day be able to return home permanently.
Our mission is to help emigrants and their families realize this dream
by generating local sources of employment, improving access to
education, and increasing quality of life. We accomplish this through
community organizing, advocacy, and grant-writing.
We first identify the unique challenges, needs, assets, and priorities
of each community through town meetings and comprehensive surveys. We
then locate and mobilize resources from universities, other non-profit
organizations, private donors, and all levels of government.
From building community centers, to nurturing cooperative
micro-enterprises, to coordinating high school programs, we work towards
the holistic development of communities to assure them a sustainable
future.
