The Yacht Club de Monaco hosted a colourful Jungle Night charity gala in support of Monaco Disease Power, bringing together His Serene Highness Prince Albert II and members of the Principality’s community to raise awareness and funds for people living with disabilities…
Founded in 2007, Monaco Disease Power has spent nearly two decades supporting children and adults with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorders, whilst providing essential assistance to their families.
In Monaco, the association operates a day centre offering adapted activities, individual and group sessions, family support meetings and programmes during school holidays.

Its work also extends into the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, where two dedicated respite facilities, La Maison d’Amélie and La Maison des Copains, provide supported stays for people with disabilities, giving their families valuable opportunities to rest. More recently, Maison de Delphine has opened as an inclusive residential community for autistic adults, representing a significant milestone for the association.
For founder Muriel Natali-Laure, whose commitment stems from her personal experience as the mother of a child with a disability, these projects address the everyday challenges facing families.
Future ambitions include developing a large garden, vegetable-growing facilities and potentially a small farm, creating further opportunities for residents to enjoy outdoor activities. The gala will help fund these initiatives and strengthen the association’s continuing work.
