When the Mexican Association to Help Children with Cancer was created in 1982 there was no model to follow in Mexico. Latin America was almost completely devoid of non-governmental organizations to support treatment for children with cancer. In the early years AMANC aided treatment with anticancer drugs based on three convictions. The first refers to the right childhood cancer patients have to receive the best available treatment. The second corresponds to high survival and therapeutic success chances provided treatment is timely and effective. The third refers to lack of resources in public hospitals in Mexico, that subjects patients and their families to additional stress and enormous difficulties they must endure during long periods of cancer treatment and surveillance. Those convictions served to define AMANC's mission "That no Mexican child or adolescent under age 20 with cancer, with limited economic resources and without access to social security, shall lack optimal support to defeat cancer." For the past 31 years this paradigm has distinguished AMANC not only as the pioneer organization in Mexico in helping children and adolescents with cancer but also as the first to ensure that their parents and other family members also receive psychological and other services necessary to ensure that they carry through their child's treatment and subsequent medical surveillance period. So that, our Mission is That all disadvantaged Mexican citizens under twenty years and diagnosed with cancer receive optimal and timely support during their treatment and healing and be fully integrated back into their communities. Providing patients under 20 years old, comprehensive care throughout the time that they may need it, including relapses, until recovery is achieved, helping them to renew the course of their lives through education and family health lessons to become agents for social change in their communities Our vision is that in the medium term all children and adolescents with cancer receive quality Comprehensive Care, in a location that is as close to their homes as possible, through the AMANC SYSTEM.

Founded in 2014, Arte Pro aims to enable children and youth in vulnerable situations to improve their emotional health while developing their cognitive and social skills through an exchange with artists from diverse disciplines. Arte Pro empower groups in vulnerable situations through an aesthetic education that unites the realms of art, society, and mindfulness. Our program is tailored to the individual psychological needs of each child and brings out their potential through art and play. Our work is based on current scientific studies and the deep understanding that there is never a problematical child, there are only problematic circumstances. Musicians, visual artists, dancers, and theatre actors collaborate with neuroscientists, child development specialists, psychologists, and pedagogues to build a program empowering children from ages 3 to 17. According to Nobel Prize winner, PhD. James J. Heckman, cognitive abilities are important determinants of socioeconomic success. Other important determinants include socioemotional skills, physical and mental health, perseverance, attention, motivation, and self-confidence. Arte Pro's ludic approach to aesthetic practice and mindfulness provides tools for self-reflection and introspection, creating a space for personal dialogue and sensitivity. Arte Pro promotes self-reliance, self-respect, and respect for others, while deepening thinking skills, confidence and self-esteem. Arte Pro's vision is clear: to replace the traumas of their past with a brighter future.Through this initiative, society has a chance to improve children's academic performance and future progression, as well as contribute to reducing the risk of resorting to crime, thus changing itself for the better.

Our mission: To generate and guide the processes of social transformation by educating children, young people, and their families. Our vision: To be a self-sustainable educational community with an exponentially increasing impact on the socioeconomic development of high-risk communities through particular attention to children, adolescents, and young people Our programs provide educational services, from primary through high school and preparatory levels, to the Morelos population of children, adolescents, and young adults living in vulnerable socio-economic situations. We benefit more than 1,320 students in four municipalities by applying a humanistic model integrating education with a risk prevention program based on three main axes: training for peace, solidarity, and hope. Monthly internal cost per student: 1,622.25 pesos 81% of our students have scholarships We provide Primary, Secondary, Preparatorio, Universidad, and Post-Grad The Don Bosco Community Our community includes a scholarship program on our four campuses: Cuernavaca, Emiliano Zapata, Popotlan, and Colonia Juan Morales. These scholarships benefit 81% of our students, with the scholarship percentage calculated in relation to individual financial needs. For the past ten years, we have offered education to the children of Mixtec artisans who live in the "El Chiflon" ravine in Chulavista. Don Bosco's agreement with "El Centro Educativo La Buena Tierra" allows children from the former train tracks in Cuernavaca to continue their studies at the middle and high school levels. Through various agreements with Morelos's universities, Don Bosco's graduates are guaranteed access to both public and private universities. In the past five years, our Educaton program has allowed 821 students over 18 to obtain their Baccalaureate Certificate by Agreement 286 of the SEP. To date, Don Bosco has two economically productive projects: a bazaar and a water purification plant. These projects directly benefit the foundation and the nearby community. Juan Morales Rural Campus The Juan Bosco Digital Baccalaureate, located on the Juan Morales campus, began operations in 2016 at the request of the neighborhood's inhabitants in Yecapixtla, Morelos. Through a permanent commitment with UNAM five generations of students have graduated with a Preparatory degree, with a student continuity rate between grades trending at 98% Each school year, an average of 100 students study a curriculum based on the B@UNAM high school model in conjunction with the Don Bosco Foundation's humanistic model to provide comprehensive academic, psychological, and emotional support from a perspective of restorative justice and a risk prevention approach based on a Culture of Peace. Popotlan Rural Campus In 2015, the Popotlan High School opened its doors in Temoac, Morelos. Since this community had no viable high school options for young people, the Don Bosco Foundation proposed opening a high school using the same digital model developed in San Juan with UNAM. Most of the parents of our students at this campus are farmers or employees of the Huazulco candy factories. In this school year (24-25), 44 students are pursuing their high school degree through the B@UNAM agreement.

Important themes are covered in these 2 documents which strive to ensure that we create access for all deaf people to all ways of life in "a world where deaf people everywhere can sign anywhere" (vision). Furthermore, our mission is to work towards the full realisation of linguistic rights and human rights in all areas of life, with full recognition and implementation of these rights across local, national and international levels. To realise our mission and vision, the following are part of our Action Plan 2023-2027: Building Capacity across the Globe: ensuring increased participation of women, youth and underrepresented communities; provide effective capacity building projects to countries who are not yet members to assist them with creating their own national deaf associations so that they can represent themselves in their countries; Putting Deaf people on the Agenda: the WFD will continue to strive to put deaf human rights at the forefront of all representation internationally, including at the UN; we will effectively promote International Week of Deaf people and be ready to response to deaf people's needs in times of crises, disasters and war. Realising nothing about us without us: the WFD continues to be the leading authority for deaf people and sign languages and has committed to developing resources to assist deaf people raise awareness in their countries. Achieving Sign Language Rights for all: National sign languages are fundamental to achieving deaf people's human rights. We will aim to assist our member states in promoting the legal recognition of signed language in the country and advocate for early childhood language acquisition and inclusive multilingual education policies. Investing in a strong and sustainable organisation: to carry out our mission and vision we need greater investment in our secretariat and regional secretariat, expand our donor base, increase visibility and fundraising activities so that our organisation can carry on its important global work.
