Community support
Many families in Cabo Velas have been stuck in a cycle of poverty for generations.
This means…
- Infants face lifelong health issues from preventable conditions
- Children miss school because they can’t afford bus fare
- Teens become vulnerable to drugs with no safe after-school programs
- Mothers skip prenatal care without transportation to clinics
- Parents can’t get jobs without basic English or technical skills
- Elders suffer in isolation without community connection
We believe everyone deserves access to support that makes a better life possible.

Provide healthcare and nutrition that stops problems before they start.
Break the Cycle
Watch families rise out of poverty through education and opportunity.
Know Your Impact
100% of your donation funds programs, not overhead.
We get it. With so many causes asking for support, it's hard to know where your dollar will have the most impact.
We know you want to be a compassionate person who makes a real difference in the world. In order to do that, you need to find trustworthy organizations where your donation creates meaningful change.
The problem is most charities spend heavily on administration or offer temporary fixes that don’t address root causes. This can leave you feeling skeptical about whether your generosity actually helps.
We believe every donor deserves to know their gift is making a real impact. That’s why, for the past eight years, we’ve ensured that 100% of donations go directly to programs. Every initiative is built to create lasting, measurable change in the Cabo Velas community.

“The Baby Bank Program provided nutrition support that saved my premature baby’s life.”
"My shy daughter found her voice and her future"
Before joining Club House, our after-school program, Chloe was withdrawn and struggled with self-esteem. Now at 13, she confidently shares her dreams and has clear goals for her life. The safe environment and volunteer opportunities opened doors we never knew existed. She’s becoming the leader our community needs.
– Maria, Chloe’s mother
"The early intervention saved my grandson's ability to walk"
When Laurent couldn’t sit up at 12 months, we feared the worst. The therapy team discovered muscle weakness in his feet that we never would have noticed. After targeted exercises and weekly sessions, he’s now running and playing like any other 2-year-old. Without this program, he might never have walked properly.
– María, Laurent’s grandmother
"From premature and underweight to thriving in just 4 months"
Eliam was born prematurely and couldn’t breastfeed. We had no money for formula and I was terrified we’d lose him. The Baby Bank Program provided nutrition support that saved his life. Look at him now—healthy, strong, and meeting all his milestones. Your donation literally kept my baby alive.
– Yudy, Eliam’s mother

“My teen was bored and vulnerable to drugs. The Club House after school program gave him purpose and a dream to attend college.”
"My clingy toddler became confident and social"
Said wouldn’t leave my side and had no emotional control. The stimulation program taught us both healthy attachment. Now he solves problems independently, plays with other children, and even understands boundaries. The transformation in just 6 months has been incredible.
– Natalia, Said’s mother
"The Club House gave my son alternatives to the streets"
At 13, Róger was at risk like many boys here—bored, isolated, and vulnerable to drugs. Club House gave him purpose through volunteer work and a peer community. He’s now confident speaking publicly about his dreams of attending university. This program kept him safe during the most dangerous years.
– Róger’s parent
"From unemployed to supporting my entire family"
After losing my construction job during COVID, I couldn’t feed my three children. The English program was free and flexible around my job search. Within 8 months, I was hired at a resort making triple my old salary. Now I’m teaching English to other fathers in our community. One skill changed everything.
– Carlos, program graduate

How Your Gift Changes Lives in Three Key Programs
Early Childhood Development
Your support gives infants and toddlers the therapies and nutrition they need for a healthy start in life.
Eliam’s Story: Eliam was born underweight and struggling to feed. His mother, recovering from a dangerous delivery, couldn’t afford the formula he needed to grow. Through the Baby Bank Program, Eliam received nutritional support and early therapies that helped him gain weight, receive his first vaccines, and grow stronger every month. Today he’s smiling, thriving, and hitting milestones his family once feared he might never reach.
Early Stimulation Program
Your support provides specialized therapies that help young children overcome developmental delays and grow.
Said’s Story: When Said first arrived, he struggled with emotional regulation, physical development, and separation from his mother. Through patient, loving support and weekly therapies, he learned to crawl, walk, and even run. He now expresses himself, handles frustration with ease, and interacts with other children with joy and confidence. His mother says their lives have completely changed.
After School Club House
Your support helps teens build confidence, leadership skills, and a vision for their future in a safe, positive environment.
Dariany’s Story: Before joining Club House, Dariany felt shy and unsure of herself. Through hands-on activities, vocational visits, and community service projects, she found new confidence. She made close friends, learned to express herself, and discovered she has a bright future ahead. Now, she speaks up with courage, leads with confidence, and feels safe and supported every time she walks through the door.
