Human Rights

Assessment, policy and goals

Donadora’s mission is to connect people through online donation and encourage regular donations movements to accelerate social change. Trust and transparency are therefore two of Donadora’s most important values, referring not only to internal behaviors but also conducting business and relationships with customers, partners, collaborators. Our work is compromised with the well-being of our society.

Since Donadora’s beginnings in April 2016, we’ve brought more than 3,800 social projects to raise $121,000,000 MXN, (aprox. $6,000,000 USD), impacting thousands of lives thanks to online donations. Donadora’s campaigns are divided in 9 categories of impact: Animals, Communities, Culture, Health, Education, Environment, Sports, Volunteering, Emergencies, and Culture. The most interesting part is the indirect impact generated by all the achievements of our campaign’s owners, which can go from saving a life, to installing solar energy systems in rural communities, developing SAAS tackling mental health issues or providing educational tools to low-income schools. By empowering the campaign owners, a wide variety of issues can be changed for the better.
