Angels in La Cruz Mexico

Upon visiting a market on the weekend in a tiny village of La Cruz, just north of Puerto Vallarta, we noticed a lot of children busy doing crafts, reading and having a lot of fun.

Upon asking, we found out that every weekend and every day after school, a retired professor called Sergio and his friends volunteer their time to run these activities. It is their effort to improve the lives of the children in their community.

They have a broken-down van that they use to transport craft supplies, books, etc, for the kids and all they ask for is donations so they can buy more supplies.

Recently, they were broken into and all their supplies were taken.

We could not help them enough and hope to assist them in the future. I just received an email from Sergio and now they are going into outlying communities and helping out.

Pretty amazing!
