Economic Empowerment
Mexican migrants contribute significantly to both the Mexican and American economies. They are the ones who are everyday on the fields harvesting, at the front of the pandemic, cleaning hospitals, or care centers, or the ones keeping restaurants open. Statistics show that Latinos are the fastest demographic segment and the group that is building the most new small businesses
However
Latino small businesses are the least digitized, losing a tremendous opportunity to reach a wider audience
In Mexico, almost 50% of the Mexican population live in poverty. Poverty increased from 51.9 to 55.7 millions from 2018 to 2020 in USA
On average, Mexicans have lower incomes than the overall foreign- and native-born populations
This is why Fuerza Migrante Foundation supports the following projects
Mí-ra-me
(Mis Raíces Mexicanas)
Commercial social project
Social economy projects to increase
productivity and assure social impact
Digitalization of small
businesses
Latino and Mexican-owned small
businesses will increase their
competitiveness with a strong online and
social media presence
Our goal is to execute 4 social economic projects and digitize 10,000 businesses in one year
Please donate to make this happen
Thank you for your kindness!
