Etymologically, from the Latin, “missio” means sending and, between some definitions and uses that the RAE gives to this term is “The power or the faculty that is given to somebody who is able to accomplish some commitment.”

In general, we call mission to a plan that some people accomplish with a specific objective.

A humanitarian mission consists of a group of people who move to a place where its inhabitants are in danger, in order to provide them nutritional, medical or health assistance.

Therefore foundations have the task or the objective to offer works for the common good.

Our Foundation’s trips are called “MISSIONS” because there are groups of people, our volunteers, who travel to the East African countries, which are the most harmed of the world, to provide nutritional, medical or health assistance.

We are going to show you what our missions have been since 2006 until now, beginning with a graph where our evolution over the years is shown.
