Expanding a Mission of Care

Celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, the Letty Coppel Foundation continues to fulfill its mission of supporting underserved communities in Los Cabos, Mexico. With a focus on healthcare, social support, and community development, the foundation has touched countless lives through its philanthropic initiatives.

A cornerstone of the foundation's work is its mobile medical unit program. Launched in 2018, the first mobile unit served as a vital resource, providing free medical consultations, check-ups, medications, and basic procedures to over 600 people a month. This pioneering initiative — the first of its kind in Baja California Sur — addressed critical healthcare needs in Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, and the surrounding areas.

Now, thanks to the unwavering support of donors, the Letty Coppel Foundation has taken a significant leap forward. The recent acquisition of a second mobile medical unit marks a new chapter in the foundation’s mission, paving the way to double the impact. With this second unit, the foundation’s teams of professionals can reach more people, expand their geographic reach, increase efficiency, and take the opportunity to specialize in a wider range of services.

Beyond providing medical services, the Letty Coppel Foundation champions preventative care education. Workshops on nutrition, hygiene, and disease prevention empower individuals and families to make informed decisions about their health. These efforts, delivered in a culturally sensitive and accessible manner, foster a holistic approach to community well-being.

The arrival of the second mobile unit is a testament to the unwavering dedication of the Letty Coppel Foundation and its supporters. Every medical consultation, every prescription filled, and every life touched is a direct result of their tireless efforts.

How You Can Help
The Letty Coppel Foundation relies on the generosity of donors to continue its vital work. Here are a few ways you can contribute to the mission. 

  • Make a financial donation: Any amount, big or small, helps the foundation fuel its operations and maintain its mobile units.
  • Volunteer your time when in Cabo: The foundation welcomes volunteers with various skill sets, from medical professionals to administrative support.
  • Spread the word: Help raise awareness about the Letty Coppel Foundation's work and inspire others to get involved.

By joining forces with the Letty Coppel Foundation, we can all play a role in ensuring access to quality healthcare for those who need it most. Together, we can build a healthier future for the communities of Los Cabos.

The Letty Coppel Foundation's dedication extends beyond healthcare. The recent inauguration of the Letty Coppel Assistance Center in 2021 exemplifies the foundation's commitment to comprehensive community development.  These initiatives, alongside the mobile medical units, demonstrate Pueblo Bonito Resorts and Quivira Los Cabos' active role in strengthening local families through charitable outreach.
