February 18th, 2015. To whom it might concern, By the present I have the honor to recommend Andrea Ramirez. She has been volunteering at “Diseña el Cambio México” since last year. She designed our annual impact report, with a high level of professionalism, creativity, proactivity and responsibility. This year she is a volunteer in the evaluation process of the change projects that more than 45,000 children around the country implemented with the guidance of their teachers.
Because of the great job Andrea did with the design of our annual report, we hire her to design our Tool Kit and Promotional package, the most important tool we use to promote “Diseña el Cambio” in more than 230,000 schools around the country. Diseña el Cambio Mexico is part of the Design for Change movement, that started in India 6 years ago with the objective of empower children to transform their ideas in actions that can change the world using four powerful questions: FEEL, IMAGINE, DO and SHARE, and now is present in more than 40 countries around the world.
As I said before, I am honored to recommend Andrea for her best interest. And I will be glad to provide any information requested. Best,
Alma Ramirez Director Diseña el Cambio México alma.ramirez@educaruno.org
