SoJo - The Social Journal

We would like to introduce SoJo (Social Journal) as part of Isa Mundo Foundation's committment to expose organizations and groups who are doing inspiring work to engage youth to make a positive change in their communities.

Isa Mundo is proud to be a part of the initial discussion for SoJo and we are excited to work together in the future by using our skills and network to promote our shared values and vision . SoJo was developed to be the " foremost online destination to inspire and empower youth to dream big and engage in social entrepreneurship. It empowers users with the tools and resources necessary to create social ventures."

We invite our youth members and supporters to visit the SoJo website at thesojo.net to learn more about how to turn you ideas for social change into reality.

Isa Mundo in 2012

Happy New Year!!

Although we were launched in 2006, this is the start of Isa Mundo Foundation's 6th full year in operation. When we reflect back to what we have accomplished together, communities we have visited, projects we have completed, volunteers we have met and partnerships we have formed - it has truly been a great success. We owe it all to friends, families, businesses, communities and other organizations, who believe and support our work.

In 2012, we hope to launch and complete a few projects. Along the way, we will update you on our progress, challenges and hopefully lots of success stories. We are eager to keep expanding our IMEC concept in Peru, begin discussion on a new Social Skills Program under our Children and Youth projects, begin conservation and environmental health projects in Mexico, forge partnerships with new organizations in British Columbia, and continually support our existing projects. It will require a lot of effort to accomplish all these goals but we are looking forward to the challenge.

It will be a very busy 2012 and we are excited to continue Isa Mundo's committment to better the lives of those less fortunate in the world.
