GlobalGiving Highlight of the Week: Mexico

I'm so excited to announce my new project!!

Starting this week, GlobalGiving and I will be highlighting one country, area, or issue that is in need of attention. We'll give you an array of opportunities to help out, so if you find that the issue or country is near and dear to your heart, just follow the links to learn more and give generously. And if there is something or somewhere you'd like to see us highlight, leave it in the comments and I'll make sure we add it to our list. 

As always, thank you for making a difference!

GlobalGiving Highlight of the Week: MEXICO

I absolutely love Mexico. My husband was born and raised there and we've spent a lot of time visiting his family and exploring up and down Baja.

Unfortunately, between the drug wars, slowing tourism, even slower economy, negative US influences, and poverty levels, it's a struggling country these days. So I'm always on the lookout for ways to help.

Here's a round-up of my favorite GlobalGiving projects currently going on in Mexico:

Microloans Help Poverty-Stricken in Mexico

Help Mexican Youths Fight Violence Through Art\

Support Indigenous Women to Market Their Products

Microfinance for Marginalized Communities, Mexico

Give Safe Water to 1000 Families in Latin America

A donation as small as $10 will make a big difference for any one of these projects {some of which are very close to meeting their goal!}, so don't hesitate, even if you only have a little to share. As our neighboring country, only good can come to both of us if Mexico continues improving the lives of it's people. And we can help.
