What we do with your donations
MundoExchange recipients greatly appreciate the financial contributions they receive from you, volunteers and others around the globe.
MundoExchange sponsors and runs projects in the following areas:
- environmental projects,
- community development,
- emergency assistance,
- educational sponsorships & projects.
These projects and scholarships are only possible because of your donations and volunteer assistance. One of the most fundamental beliefs of MundoExchange is the method by which your financial contributions are invested directly and intelligently into important projects and with the communities with which we work.
Through our collective life experiences in the non-profit sector, we believe deeply in not-for-profit work and we maintain financial integrity. Although we appreciate some local and international volunteer companies that are oriented towards turning profits, we remain strongly dedicated to only non-profit exchanges.
Your financial and volunteer contributions to MundoExchange, no matter how big or small, are directly invested into community development and important educational projects. This funding support is then consistently monitored with care.
Our scholarships often go to individuals who provide leadership and learning exchanges with others in the world and in their own communities. Their progress is also consistently monitored and written reports are required to prove that these recipients are actively involved in their own programs. For many years we have sponsored individuals around the world who are in dire need of financial assistance, are or will be inspiring leaders in their communities, and give back to their community and the world. We sponsor those who would otherwise not be able to attain their goals of further education and community service work. As part of our international exchange, they agree to volunteer themselves and be pro-active in their own communities.
Monitoring
MundoExchange monitors these exchanges, asks for verification of educational status, and keeps in direct contact with those we sponsor. This is a ‘pay it forward’ type of exchange where your financial contributions will help these individuals attain goals and dreams.
Currently MundoExchange and friends are primarily sponsoring individuals and groups in Thailand and Guatemala.
Please note that MundoExchange has been granted official 501(c)(3) status and your donations are tax-deductible. We are formed in the State of Oregon (USA).
We are a non-profit, non-governmental, non-religious organization.
Our assistance includes financial and educational training programs for communities in need, international volunteer cross-cultural programs, and occupational seminars.
Your assistance is appreciated greatly!
