Social
responsibility represents an important commitment for Mossack Fonseca and
our affiliates. It is also a daily reminder about our responsibility towards
society.
Every
year we donate to various organizations that share our values and in so doing,
we stretch out Mossack Fonseca’s helping hand. Through our Corporate
Social Responsibility Program, we actively and voluntarily contribute
to the positive development of human beings, especially those in dire need.
Learn
about our work and share in our cause. The lens of the camera captures a fair
image of what we do, but the impact of our work goes far beyond. Stretching out
a helping hand and coming together to enhance the lives of other people is what
motivates us to do more.
Mossack
Fonseca is committed to helping communities, which is why our legal experts
have provided legal assistance to many organizations, including:
Rotary
Club of Boquete (Panama)
The
British Aid Society
Aero
Club of Panama
Kennel
Club Foundation
Fundacion
Confederation Canofila Panama
The
World Bank
Mossack
Fonseca has a strong commitment to foster change where it is needed most. It is
a way to remind ourselves daily about the responsibility we have towards
society.
PIERO
Rafael Martinez de la Hoz FOUNDATION
This
organization provides emotional support to people and families who have lost
loved ones through caregiving and educational programs. The Foundation seeks to
create consciousness about the internal processes that take place, but are not
always properly channeled, when people endure loss.
Its
main purpose is to offer companionship, educate the community by disseminating
information on how to confront grief, and offer training to different
professionals to help them manage bereavement.
TOMATIS
THERAPY AND STIMULATION FOUNDATION (fundet-TOMATIS)
The
TOMATIS method owes its name to Dr. Alfred A. Tomatis, a French physician and
researcher born in 1920. He was also a psychologist, speech language
pathologist and a member of the French Academy of Sciences.
For
him, listening was not the same as hearing because listening is affected by
motivation and functional elements that depend on the will of the individual.
Listening is far more than the passive act of registering sounds randomly.
In
Panama, the Tomatis Therapy and Stimulation Foundation (FUNDET-TOMATIS) offers
a wide range of programs for children and adults. The donations they receive
enable them to offer free speech scholarships for Panamanian children who would
not otherwise receive the timely and necessary help they require.
ART
IN THE PARK FOUNDATION
Fundación
Arte en el Parque is the first foundation from the city of Penonomé to promote
artistic and cultural values in the province of Coclé and to create spaces and
activities that also have an impact on cultural tourism. The VII Art in the
Park Festival will serve as a forum for art in general and offer provincial
artists an opportunity to make their talent known and present their works,
thereby motivating emerging artists who also wish to participate. The
Foundation is currently offering local Fine Arts scholarships and also conducts
seminars and courses for the social and humanistic/liberal arts formation of
artists and the general public.
SAINT
JOSEPH PARISH FOUNDATION OF VALLE DE ANTÓN
Mossack
Fonseca is pleased to cooperate with the work carried out by Fundación San Jose
located in the Anton Valley, which responds to the basic needs of the local
church and the neediest in the region, especially children. The projects being
developed are focused primarily on social interest issues, education, health
and cultural activities for children.

benefits include a library open to the public with more than 5000 volumes on
diverse themes, as well as 30 computers with Internet access and open spaces
for children and adolescents. The Foundation has also opened a Pastoral Health
Home for the elderly which has its own grove to help feed them.
I
am able FOUNDATION ("I AM CAPABLE" FOUNDATION)
From
its inception, the Foundation’s mission has been to support individuals with
autism. It also offers guidance to the public and to the families of those with
this condition because if these individuals receive special care from an early
age, they are capable of becoming a part of society.
Recent
statistics show that 1 in every 88 children is affected by this condition and
that 1 in every 54 is a boy. More than 50,000 people are stricken by autism in
Panama, which is an alarming number for our society.
PANAMANIAN
INSTITUTE FOR FAMILY EDUCATION – IPEF
The
Panamanian Institute for Family Education is an organization accredited by the
Ministry of Education which seeks to enrich the quality of life of the family,

and ideas. This organization seeks to provide each member of the family with
the tools that will help them strengthen their relationships and develop their
life projects.

June, the IPEF conducted the conference "Challenges of the XXI Century
Family" and presented topics such as: Keys to Preventing Failure in the
Educational Project and How to Strengthen the Self-Esteem and Identity of our
Children.
