Criteria to be an NPO in the Los Cabos Community Youth Center

Does your NPO meet our Criteria?

Is your NPO focused on helping the youth in the Los Cabos community in the following areas: prevention, activities, and services for physical and mental health, services for children with disabilities, improving access to healthy food and nutrition (e.g., food bank, garden), and vocational training (e.g., hospitality school).

Will your NPO reside at the Youth Center and will you engage with their recipients (e.g., kids) at this location? The space will not be used as an administrative office only. Has the NPO been in business for at least 3 years and will you share the financials for that timeframe?

Has your NPO established a governing board that meets at least semi-annually, but ideally quarterly?

Does your NPO have the ability to pay for their share of the maintenance costs at the Youth Center, and costs related to their space directly (e.g., electricity costs, insurance, security deposit, and protección civil costs)?

If you meet this criteria, please contact our Executive Director.

We are a model of support for our community, and we’re looking for you to get involved. At our Youth Center, volunteers make a real difference—whether you come as an individual or with a group. Past volunteers have helped us clean and plant our garden, painted classrooms, played games with the kids, shared meals, and even taught English. Your time and talents directly support our children and strengthen our community.

Ways to Get Involved

Whether you have a few hours or a full day, we’d love to welcome you, please contact our Executive Director.
