About us
We work on the ground, house by house, identifying real needs and responding fast. Our team verifies every case, documents each delivery and follows up with every family.
Transparency is our commitment: every donation becomes something concrete — a wheelchair, a walker, care supplies, food or a medical visit.
Transparency
Every delivery is documented and verifiable.
Dignity
We serve with respect, without conditions.
Proximity
Real presence in the community, not just an office.
Programs
Wheelchairs, walkers, commodes, care supplies and wound-care materials for patients and elders.
Mobility, accompaniment and continuous care for people with limiting conditions and their caregivers.
Food, essential goods and targeted support for families in vulnerable situations.
Real stories

Leadership
I grew up among these communities and I know what it means for someone to show up when you need it most. That is why Palenque Foundation exists.
