Last Wednesday, March 7, Expok shared with us a study by the firm Delloite on the perception that a generation of young Americans who are entering the labor market today has regarding the company, its usefulness and its social contribution. Basically, the Millenial Survey 2012 study focuses on knowing the opinion of the Millennial generation, those Americans who were born after 1981. Companies do not fare well. In the presentation of the study, the question is, What is happening? The literal question is: “Why is this happening now, when companies have more and more codes of conduct, commitment to the environment and philanthropic initiatives?” This study is published in a context where citizen participation has flowed for various reasons in the world; from the globaliphobic movements of the last decade to the indignados or the occupy movements of today. This week, Forbes magazine published its list of the world's billionaires, where for the third consecutive year Carlos Slim Helú is the man with the greatest financial fortune. As a result, he was interviewed and the magnate proposed a well-known thesis: in Mexico businessmen have greater credibility than politicians, which seems logical and consistent to us, but the seasoning he added to his comment counterpoints Delloite's study is to point out that Businessmen could be better public administrators than the people who exercise power.

It is possible that for a large percentage of Phone Number List the population (in Mexico and the US) the perception of the company's usefulness is changing, I don't know if favorably or on the contrary. However, what we want to highlight is that the contribution of the Delloite study is important because in fact the company is undergoing a positive transformation in that they act increasingly with "codes of conduct, commitment to the environment and philanthropic initiatives." Just today, Tuesday, the V Latin American CSR Meeting is taking place where the Mexican Center for Philanthropy and the Mexican Alliance for Social Responsibility will be awarding the Distinction in its 11th edition and the fact is interesting: 676 corporations will receive it in 2011 572 did it. Now, what is happening in Mexico regarding donations? The Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP) released the data on how much money was donated in 2011. The figure reached 26,368 million pesos, an amount that was higher by 3,998 million pesos, that is, 18 percent more than in 2010. We can therefore speculate that the increase is due to several causes: On the one hand, we can see that new business foundations are being forged and both the contribution and the competitive advantages to direct social investment and establish a differentiator from its competitors are increasingly understood.

This marks the need to budget social investment resources. The confidence of Mexicans, including citizens, in institutions outside of traditional political and government bodies to channel resources and donations is growing. Teletón Foundation and the construction of Rehabilitation Centers manage to achieve the goal year after year. Únete stated on Adolfo Castellot's radio program (Red Empresarial) that fortunately the economic goals of his campaigns have been increasing progressively. Increases government participation in the resources that are channeled to the development of the philanthropic sector and its work. The amounts of calls for support to institutions have increased, as well as 3 X 1 programs and resources for the institutional strengthening of philanthropic organizations throughout the country. Today, fortunately, there is a wide range of training, advice and consulting in favor of philanthropy. There may be a growing number of individual donors who participate in various ways, such as adopting a child as a godparent, donating regularly against their credit card, saying yes to rounding up the number of cents donated to various organizations. Causes. But it has also undoubtedly increased business confidence in the operators of programs aimed at disadvantaged population groups. More business mechanisms are leveraged and developed to support social investment.
