MEXICO CITY, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fundación Reintegra has been named the Mexican winner of the F1® Allwyn Global Community Award at the FORMULA 1 GRAN PREMIO DE LA CIUDAD DE MÉXICO 2026. The organisation, which for four decades has specialised in violence prevention and adolescent rehabilitation, has been awarded €100,000 from Allwyn, the lottery-led entertainment company. The donation will enable it to support a further 80 adolescents in contact with the justice system to prevent recidivism and facilitate social reintegration.
In Mexico, young people who have come into contact with the justice system face urgent, high-need social challenges that typically receive less visibility and support. Many of these young people face underlying factors such as unresolved trauma, a lack of family support and constructive opportunities. Creating real alternatives for these adolescents and reducing the likelihood of reoffending is a critical challenge affecting local safety and future opportunities.
