Welcome to Fundación Corazón de Niña, a residence and educational program for children and youth at risk in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.  We are a family of up to 100 at any given time, all ages, growing, thriving and preparing for our futures.  With the help of sponsors, we provide them with access to quality education, healthcare and the love of a forever home.

 

Fundación de Corazón de Niña, the largest of all children’s charities in Puerto Vallarta, works to provide promising futures for orphans and disadvantaged children through a variety of Programs.  We believe that the survival, protection and development of children must be a priority for everyone, without them there is no future.

 

Corazón advocates for the protection of children's rights adhering to international standards of behaviour towards children.  Given that Mexico holds first place in the world for violence against its children, we have been called 'rebelious and disobedient' because we don't give up.

 

We are committed to providing access to quality healthcare, education and life skills giving children and youth the support they need to reach their full potential.   Corazón is non-partisan and promotes equal rights and inclusion. We provide protection for some of Mexico's most disadvantaged children and youth – orphans, victims of abandonment, extreme poverty, violence, abuse and exploitation, children with disabilities and pediatric diseases.

​​

Corazón is committed to a holistic eco-centric learning experience, with UN Sustainable Development Goals at the heart of our Educational Program.  We raise awareness and effect transformation, inspiring youth to think Globally and act locally, global citizens with a conscience and the courage to be self-sustaining while making a difference both in their community and internationally.

​

We are part of a universal movement, working tirelessly to eliminate child poverty, abuse and exploitation, ensuring all children enjoy the right to a fair chance at life.
