Our objective is to meet basic needs and impact vulnerable populations that are adjacent to the sector where the organization is located. To do this, we have provided a space designed for them, where they can receive food, clothing, and emotional-spiritual help. We will have a space for children between 2 and 5 years old, in order to teach classes (preschool), since we seek to give children the opportunity to study, since the majority of their parents do not have sufficient resources to pay their education. At this time we have a total number of 15 children, limited to 25 maximum, they enter from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, they receive breakfast, lunch and snacks and preschool education. We plan to be able to receive more children, to be able to feed many more families, but also to work with the mothers of the children who are part of the foundation, through entrepreneurship workshops such as in the kitchen and pastry area. 1.

Mission: Develop innovative and effective programs that, through playful and meaningful strategies, seek to prevent the violation of the rights of children and adolescents. We focus on critical issues such as psychoactive substance use, bullying, sexual abuse, teenage pregnancy, child abuse and suicide attempts. Additionally, our mission includes active participation in cultural and artistic programs, promoting community education in rights and collaborating in the prevention of crimes that affect families. For 20 years, our Foundation has worked to benefit the families of women who are dedicated to prostitution. Initially, we focused on taking care of the children of these mothers who worked in bars. With the arrival of the pandemic, we adapted our approach towards arts and crafts training for mothers, which gave rise to the brand "Lola Montez", known as "the brand of second chances." In 2024, we plan to consolidate all our efforts under the "El Refugio de las Lolas" project, and other related programs, not only training women in various trades, but also offering comprehensive support to their young children and adolescents, who face dangers of addiction and microtrafficking. This project reflects our experience and commitment to these families, allowing us to effectively address their needs and perfectly aligning our initiatives with our historic mission.
