Welcome to The Children’s Foundation

No Child Should Face the World Alone

Many children in Mexico face harsh realities without parents, basic necessities, or family warmth. The Children’s Foundation International provides essential support, offering hope and shelter to these vulnerable children at the Casa Hogar Los Angelitos in Manzanillo, Mexico.

Impacting Lives, Building Futures

Casa Hogar Los Angelitos

Casa Hogar Los Angelitos provides a safe, nurturing home for abused, homeless, and orphaned children. Here, children find stability, love, and the support they need to rebuild their lives and pursue their dreams.


Centro de Artes Los Angelitos

Our Vision

Empowering Futures:
Our Mission, Your Impact

For children who have suffered loss, neglect, abuse, or abandonment, the world is a scary and lonely place. That changes when The Children’s Foundation International steps in.

Since 1995, we have offered comprehensive care to disadvantaged children in Mexico. We provide more than just food, clothing, and shelter. The children in our care are embraced by a loving family that protects, empowers, and nurtures them.

Our Partners Speak

I believed that providing nutrition for hungry children was life-saving work. Empty stomachs need to be filled. Now / know that to make lasting change, we must fill their hearts and minds as well.

I realized during the early years of this work that providing nutrition for hungry children was life-saving and important. Empty stomachs need to be filled…. However, I knew that we needed to do more than rescue children and fill their stomachs. We needed to fill their hearts and their minds as well

The expressive arts help these children release their identity of pain and allows
them to be the young person they are, in the moment experiencing the joy of the creative process.
