As of September 1st, Programa pro Niños Incapacitados Del Lago and Amistad Canada are entering into a project partnership that strengthens their abilities to the benefit of sick and disabled children and their families in the Lake Chapala region of Jalisco.
Amistad Canada (Amistad) is a registered Canadian charity that distributes tax-deductible donations to projects run by seven non-governmental organizations based in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, and now to an eighth, Niños Incapacitados at Lakeside.
Amistad-supported projects include literacy, music and art education, for children and young adults, school hot-meal services, dental care in poor communities, midwife training as well as high school and post-secondary scholarships.
Of particular note to Canadian supporters of Ninos Incapacitados is that your donation to Amistad Canada in our name will give you the tax-deductible receipt that is often important to our donors.
In addition to issuing Canada Revenue Agency tax receipts, Amistad conducts annual financial and performance audits of all its partner NGOs to ensure donations are being used for their intended purpose. Niños Incapacitados is Amistad’s first partnership outside of San Miguel.
Dave Pike, president of Niños Incapacitados, says “the organization is delighted to join forces with Amistad Canada whose extensive experience in assisting other NGOs in Mexico, and stature as a Canadian charity, will be of real benefit to our ability to help children and their families in the Lakeside community.”
“Amistad Canada is excited to be launching a new project in the Lake Chapala region,” says its president Charles Novogrodsky, “Niños Incapacitados has a sterling community reputation. This project advances our work to build civil society relationships between Canada and Mexico.”
