opportunities for every child and youth that we care for to succeed. Through long-term solutions like
education, practical and emotional care and community development, we provide tools and
opportunities for children and youth to advance in every aspect of their lives, becoming the best that they can be. Our core focuses are; education and extracurricular activities; safe homes with a family environment; health and wellbeing support; community development, personal development and life skills.

We will now accept volunteers during school holidays only (Christmas, Easter, and Summer), to facilitate specialised workshops and courses with the children and youth in our care.

Please join our team this summer to launch Misión México's first ever Enrichment Program!
