The Duranguense USA Federation was legally established 8 years ago, it is a non-profit organization that aims to support people of Durangense origin. The federation helps bring Durangenses closer to their home communities and allows them the opportunity to work with the Mexican government social programs, such as the “3x1”, and other productive programs.
The federation also offers informational workshops for young entrepreneurs in business. In these workshops members are inform that they have the opportunity to study at the Community Plaza Casa Durango. The plaza offers many classes, including: literacy, grade school, middle-school, English, computer science, mathematics and general education development such as careers via the internet with SEP. Similarly, the federation promotes sports and cultural events such as the Charreadas.
