Annual Report for the Year ended August 31, 2023

Donations received during the year totalled $511,856 from 88 donors. Monarca has contracts for service delivery with the following charitable organizations in the Los Cabos region of Mexico all of which provide essential support services for impoverished children or adults:

Amigos de los Niños – Children’s health in Los Cabos

Boys and Girls Club – Youth development programmes for children aged 10 to 17.

Building Baja Future– Scholarships for university education.

Cabo Church – Meals for Cabo children

Casa de Abuelos de San Miguel– Lunches for senior citizens at a drop-in centre.

Casa Hogar– Residential foster home care for children who are wards of the state.

ComuniCabo– Speech therapy and medical treatment for children following surgery for cleft lips or cleft palates.

Liga MAC – Medical aid, basic needs and educational support for children up to the high school level

Los Cabos Children’s Foundation– Equipment for oncology, intensive care and heart treatment for children.

Sarahuaro– Training, life skills and English language education for destitute mothers and a lunch programme for children at a primary school.

Our donors are encouraged to specify the programme that they wish to support and we disburse the funds accordingly. Disbursements are dependent on invoices being submitted by our partners as specified in our contracts.

Monarca’s continued support of these much-needed programmes is entirely dependant on the continued generosity of Canadians.

Our annual overhead costs are minimal (under 2% of donations received). Monarca has no paid staff.

Our Board of Directors continue Monarca’s commitment to the needs of the people of Los Cabos and we thank all of our donors for their ongoing generosity. 

On behalf of the Board of Directors

Peter Beaupré, Chairman
