MCS Foundation is a 501(c)3 and 1101-01 nonprofit organization created to improve the lives and well-being of the communities we serve. Since 2017, MCS Foundation has focused on three pillars: health, education, and economic development. In October 2022, Hurricane Fiona hit Puerto Rico, impacting the southern and western areas of the Island the hardest. Since then, MCS Foundation's focus has changed, as we recognize that the private sector needs to play a greater role as a driver of solutions to the challenges facing our communities. For this reason, we have directed our efforts towards the needs of these groups, often establishing close alliances with other entities.
Currently, our efforts are guided by the concept of health-related social needs (HRSN), which are defined as the conditions of the environment in which people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide range of outcomes and risks to health, functioning and quality of life.
Here are a few examples of social determinants:
Encompassing access and the quality of services.
Housing, transportation, safety, as well as the presence of parks and playgrounds.
Addressing hunger and ensuring access to nutritional options.
Literacy, language, and the availabity of vocational training.
People's relationships and interactions with family, friends, co-workers, and members of their community.
Evaluating factors like employment opportunities, income levels, medical expenses and debt related to income.
MCS Foundation is committed to improving the quality of life of Puerto Rico’s aging communities in need. We donate 100% of funds raised to charitable causes. All contributions are federal and Puerto Rico tax deductible. At the end of the day, it’s not about us, it’s about making a positive impact on our communities and the truth is our efforts would not be possible without the support of compassionate individuals like you.
