The International Community Foundation is pleased to announce its “Retiring Responsibly in Mexico” research series with our first report “U.S. Retirements Trends in Mexico’s Coastal Communities:  Lifestyle Trends and Demographics.”  You can access the report here:  http://www.icfdn.org/publications/retireeresearch/. 
Forthcoming research studies will address trends in health care, volunteerism, philanthropy and civic engagement, real estate as well as the environment.  For more information on the International Community Foundation, visit our website at http://www.icfdn.org.

I work for the International Community Foundation (http://www.icfdn.org), a 501c3 organization that works to increase charitable giving across U.S. borders to benefit overseas communities and nonprofit organizations.  Last year, ICF donated over $5 million to organizations outside the U.S. in the areas of education, environment, health, community development, and culture and the arts.  Over 75% of our grants go to Mexico -- we focus primarily on the U.S.-Mexico border region and the Gulf of California/Sea of Cortez regions.
