Hogares de la Caridad A.C.

What Hogares de la Caridad A.C. does

Hogares de la Caridad A.C. is a Mexican non-profit civil association (Asociación Civil) founded on February 4, 1991 in Guadalajara, Jalisco, as an apostolate of the Catholic religious community Siervos de Jesús y Esclavos de María (SJEM). The organization operates Casa Hogar Bienaventurados de Jesús, a residential home (casa hogar) providing 24/7 comprehensive care for children and youth with cerebral palsy and severe disabilities who are abandoned, orphaned, or in difficult family situations. Its core service is a multidisciplinary integral attention program covering personalized nutrition, continuous medical attention, special education, and therapeutic services, supplemented by the Co-apadrinamiento (co-sponsorship) program that allows individual donors to make monthly contributions supporting individual children.

The organization operates entirely on a donation-based revenue model with no fees charged to beneficiaries. Revenue streams include monetary donations (via bank transfer to Scotiabank Inverlat and BBVA Bancomer accounts, credit card, and in-person delivery), in-kind donations, and recurring monthly co-sponsorship commitments processed through a dedicated platform (coapadrinamiento-hogares.org). Donations are tax-deductible in Mexico. The GTM motion is community-led and event-driven, relying on word-of-mouth referrals, volunteer (colaboradores) recruitment, social media engagement (Facebook page @HogaresDeLaCaridadAC), blog content (hogaresdelacaridad.blogspot.mx), and in-person events such as galas and talent shows. Annual financial reports (2024-2025 available) are published to maintain donor transparency.

The legal structure is a private non-profit civil association governed by a volunteer Consejo Directivo led by President Lic. Eugenia Zúñiga Pérezbolde, with operational leadership anchored by the SJEM religious community (founded by Hno. Francisco Javier de la O Alatorre). Two physical facilities operate in Guadalajara's Colonia Providencia — the main casa hogar at Río de Janeiro 2378 and Casa Central of the male religious community at Buenos Aires 2901. The organization was canonically erected as a Public Association of the Faithful by Cardinal Juan Sandoval Iñiguez on January 24, 1997. Geographic scope is strictly domestic, serving the Guadalajara/Jalisco region with no disclosed plans for geographic expansion.
