Doral Council Rescinds Non-profit Sponsorships

DORAL – The Doral City Council voted Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2026, to partially rescind municipal sponsorships for three non-profit organizations as the city plans its budget. The decision affects the Drama Foundation Inc., Lend a Hand USA Foundation Inc. and the Mexican Cultural and Tourism Institute of Houston (MCTIH).

Councilman Pineyro brought forward the action, which rescinds portions of three previous resolutions: Resolution No. 25-102 for the Drama Foundation Inc., Resolution No. 25-245 for Lend a Hand USA Foundation Inc. and Resolution No. 25-286 for the Mexican Cultural and Tourism Institute of Houston. The specific amounts or nature of the sponsorships were not detailed in the agenda materials reviewed by council members.

The city will no longer provide the full extent of the previously approved municipal sponsorship to these organizations. The agenda item, Resolution No. 26-Rescinding Three Charitable Donations, was listed under the consent agenda and passed with a single vote.

The resolution takes effect upon approval, with implementation details to follow. Residents can find more information on the city's official records via the municipal website or at City Hall.
