Who we are? (Your
history & team)
Impacta Mexico, a non-governmental organization (NGO), was
established in early 2015 by Daniel Saucedo, who boasts a wealth of experience
in similar organizations. Daniel's passion for promoting volunteer
opportunities and cultural exchange programs in his beautiful city of Morelia
led him to create Impacta Mexico. The team consists of dedicated local
volunteers who provide international participants with an authentic cultural
immersion, bridging the gap between cultures and fostering genuine connections.
