An average grant of $680 can keep a Cabo student in school for a year.
Building a Brighter Future
Education is the Key
Breaking the cycle of poverty begins with education. But many families in San Jose del Cabo can’t afford for their children to stay in school through high school graduation. That means lost opportunity for whole generations of Cabo youth.
50-Percent Dropout Rate
In Mexico, 50 percent of students who start first grade don’t make it through high school. An average grant of $680 a year per student can help a student stay in school. Since 2018, when Baja Community Foundation began supporting Liga MAC, the Cabo organization has helped 244 students graduate from high school and 16 earn a college degree.
Proven Results from Liga MAC
We support Liga MAC because it has a proven track record of helping Cabo students graduate from high school with the skills they need to pursue higher education or learn a trade. Liga MAC is dedicated to developing educated, responsible, contributing community members.
