Flag Tour in Mexico City and more ..... with Vimex


Dear Friends Around the World!!!!!!!!

We wish to express to all of you our hapinness to Host the Flag of Volunteering in Mexico City first and then in different cities and localites of our country and in projects that VIMEX has presence. We host the Flag since the 21st. September until the 4th. of October . We never can imagine how many organizations, young people, universities, people in general will meet this Flag during its time in Mexico.



The first thing is that in VIMEX we thought that the Flag is not only for our organization, that we had to share with many ONG’S and volunteers that exist in Mexico and that day by day they are working in the promotion of volunteerism, to work for people, for education, people of third age, environmental, social work, ecology etc. Nowadays the Voluntarism in Mexico is in process to be more know, to be more listening, to be more present in our society. That is why this wish to share with our collegues of many mexican organizations and volunteers .


The objective was to impact our society with the Flag of Volunteering, that we all know that represents the efforts ofthousand organizations and thousand and thousand of volunteers around the world in the help of others. The impact, the happiness was incredible in the places where the Flag was present .



The most important fact was the reaction of the young people and the people in general, in the universities with the students, the teachers, the authorities, of the schools, with our parner mexican organizations and with the volunteers, everibody were really happy to see, to touch this Flag that represents the Volunteering around the world. We had different events as I told you, but this was possible with the help of our mexican partner organizations, in this case our mexican network called AMEVOL “ Alianza Mexicana de Voluntariado” (Mexican Alliance of Volunteering - MAV) that we have in Mexico and VIMEX is member of it. AMEVOL it is compouse for 14 different organizations that includes ngo’s, one university (our biggest by the way and the most important UNAM) and corporative volunteering.
