Monaco Collectif Humanitaire, a unique chain of solidarity

Since 2008, 515 children from developing countries have had operations thanks to Monaco Collectif humanitaire.

“When I reached my 50th birthday, the voluntary sector, the healthcare centres of the Principality, private partners and my Government gave me a present that came straight from their hearts: to provide medical treatment for 50 children with heart disease who could not receive the operations they needed in their home countries. That was the start of Monaco Collectif Humanitaire. When we saw how successful and important it was, we decided together to continue this remarkable chain of solidarity, which so well demonstrates my country’s commitment to the most vulnerable of people,” said Prince Albert II, on the fifteenth anniversary of MCH.

Children & Future is one of the principal donors to Monaco Collectif Humanitaire. This Monegasque association is well-known for the charity race it organises, the No Finish Line The idea is simple: Children & Future pays 1 euro to support projects for underprivileged or ill children for every kilometre run, thanks to registration fees, donors and sponsors. The event, sponsored by a basketball player in the Roca Team, Yakuba Ouattara, is open to all 24/24, whether members of a club or not, runners and walkers. In 2023, the objective was to do more than 300,000 km and therefore raise 300,000 euros. (Objective achieved with 315 561 euros raised).
