FREE IN THE SOUTH / FUND FOR PEACE

When someone decides to commit to a social cause, it is essential to evaluate the actions that can be carried out, especially in terms of donations. In our country, we can help organizations that work for a more just world for people who live in high vulnerability and who struggle daily to transform reality and improve their living conditions. These organizations promote capacity development projects, social support programs, human rights, equality, empowerment, among others.

Here are five reasons why you should consider donating to an NGO:

1. Commitment to others: As Mexican citizens, we know the importance and value of investing in the future and thinking not only of ourselves. Making donations to NGOs with a track record and results is a safe bet to improve society and the country, especially for those boys, girls, families, and rural and indigenous communities that live in environments of poverty and extreme poverty.
2. Personal satisfaction: The act of donating generates a sense of satisfaction with yourself and is projected on your reputation, demonstrating solidarity and empathy, as well as in your interactions with other people. With a monthly donation it will be possible to transform the reality of communities, families or individuals, etc.
3. Transparency in non-profit organizations: Most NGOs render accounts to different public and private organizations to demonstrate where all the funds they receive have been allocated. They are one of the sectors of society that are most respectful of tax laws and with greater obligations before the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit, the Ministry of Well-being and the Private Assistance Board. Additionally, NGOs must present their financial reports audited by external companies to corroborate transparency in the use and management of monetary, technical and administrative resources.
4. Contribute to reduce poverty: Most NGOs also seek to eliminate poverty from their different actions or scope. The way to achieve this is through the financing of programs and projects that contribute to their sustainable development. Therefore, the most cost-effective way to obtain these changes is through monetary contributions. The donation you make, no matter how small, will be a determining factor in reducing poverty and will contribute to improving the living conditions of people who live in vulnerability. It takes into account the approach of each NGO and prioritizes the organizations that help people to participate in their change, so as not to generate dependence on social projects.
5. Personal benefits: The donation gives you personal advantages, since you can have tax benefits and deduct taxes for the donations you make. By making philanthropic donations, people can better know and understand the situations of inequality and vulnerability in society, as well as have a great vision to participate in solving these problems. Additionally, by making philanthropic donations, you act as an example to the next generation, showing the value of solidarity.
