People build bridges. This is a fundamental truth, not only in the world of construction, but also in the realm of human relationships. Fomento Educacional, A.C. (FEAC), a nonprofit organization, is a bridge-builder committed to fostering greater cultural understanding between Mexico and the United States, in the belief that this goal is not only desirable but also achievable.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Our origin<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

Over time, FEAC evolved from the Mexican-American Institute of Cultural Relations, A.C., which was originally founded in 1948 under the auspices of the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City to promote bicultural understanding by offering language instruction and organizing cultural events. Eventually, the Institute became an autonomous and independent organization under the leadership of a Binational Board of Directors.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Catalyst<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

In 1968, FEAC was established and acquired real estate and the copyrights to textbooks owned by the Institute. The Institute continued to operate as a cultural center and served as a catalyst for the development of various bicultural centers and schools throughout the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Growth<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

Given the growing competition in the market for language schools in Mexico City, reorganization became inevitable, resulting in the closure of the institute. FEAC shifted part of its activities to the Mexican-American Center for Cultural Relations, A.C. (CEMARC), established in 1971. Also a bicultural language teaching center, CEMARC worked to provide English language instruction and foster bicultural understanding.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Heritage<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

Thirty-five years later, English language schools continued to proliferate, and American culture continued to spread across the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

CEMARC has been closed. FEAC\u2019s current mission is to identify funding sources and oversee institutions, organizations, educational entities, and individuals that promote bicultural understanding; to promote bicultural and educational activities; to generate and maximize returns on its endowment; and to increase its endowment through new donations. All of this is done with the aim of enhancing and enriching mutual understanding and intercultural communication between Mexico and the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
