2010 Annual Report

Tateiju España Guía del Inmigrante (TEGI)

The “Immigrant Guide “is a social mass media, which is published in a quarterly basis. Contents are orientated to contribute to the integration of newcomers into the Valencian Community. Year 2010, has been a gratifying year, full of challenges and also, of many satisfactions; our social intention as well as the need to exist have been ratified and definitively the project is accomplishing initial objectives. During the months of May and September, we experienced positive signs of growth. In the last quarter of the year, the Campaign "Integrating the Concern All of Us” reinforce its objective by being very well accepted as an integration program into public schools. Also, this year, we have participated in training courses, fairs, and civic walks, activities which contribute in a great way to our integration into the community, and at the same time, help us get closer to Spaniard public institutions that orientate most of its activities towards topics of social integration. Our sponsors have ratified their support. We continue arousing interest in public institutions that already knows us for our work, for our dedication, credibility, and continuous interest to help the immigrant’s community. As per having set up our goals on supported growth, we have accepted the challenge of generating new opportunities for young university students to do their “field work” with us.

January We initiate 2010, by assisting at a training course at the European University of Madrid, with the former group of the 10 winners form the 2009 Young Social Entrepreneurs Edition. Related links:

March During the month of March we work and edit our first documentary video with the purpose of demonstrating to young students, how a simple initiative with a very practical application, can be developed and place to work, only by having a “fundamental and clear idea” with the objective of incentive young people to develop their own ideas. We reinforce in the video, values such as believing in one self and how an idea can become a “life project” by dedicating time and effort. In the documentary, personalities of the public life and businessmen of Elche, took part in a very active way, demonstrating the acceptance of our social magazine in the daily life of Elche. The video was sent to different cities of Spain, The United States and Venezuela. We begin this way, a growing stage of this project and our projection to other cities, such as Madrid, Valencia, Caracas and Orlando, Florida. Later on, we publish it in Vimeo platform.

November During November we issue our seven edition of the Magazine Tateiju España Guides of the Immigrant. Since the year and a half that we have been out on the street with our social magazine, we realize that we have had a continued and a sustainable growth, which comes to complete two fiscal years since the initial idea, was place to work. We have obtained new sponsors, and this fact will allowed us to provide continuity for 2011, and help us to maintain high motivation to face challenges for next year. During this month we began to collaborate with the Venezuelan young entrepreneur Edgar Rodriguez of the Web Page Yosoyvenezolano.com, who tried to start a project similar to ours, focused for the Venezuelan community residents in the Madrid area. The vicerrectora of Institutional Relations of the University Miguel Hernández (UMH) of Elche, Maria Teresa Perez Vázquez, visited our HQ on Wednesday, the 17th of November The intend is to optimize the collaboration between both entities and to get to know us more closely, as well as our projects which our association is presently carrying out with the campaign “Integration is Concern of all”.

(February to April, 2011) Alex visited the city of Elche, and we join forces to promote interviews at radio stations and mass media with the purpose of announcing the promotional theme song of his first single CD.

December In December we began with interviews to journalism and marketing students of the University Miguel Hernández of Elche to launch our “in the field” working practices, in the order to provide opportunities to students who desires to start developing themselves in the social journalism area. Our objective is to build a work team to perform social journalism addressed to private companies and institutions developing Corporate Social Responsibility programs.

We have now, a work team of 5 people, covering areas of: 1 Director, 1 journalist, 1 advertising and marketing, 1 graphic designer, 1 sales and marketing representative.
