​To all the individuals who donate each month to us via the Foundation for Lake Chapala Charities.  Those donations help us manage to budget each month, by knowing we have that income coming in.  Our huge thanks for your trust in us.

To the people who donate clothing, household goods, linens, beds, furniture and anything else they are getting rid of.  Thank you.  Some items we sell or consign, others we take out to San Pedro.  Our coordinator there, finds ways to sell those items for a small amount of money, and uses this money to pay for hemodialysis for some of the kidney patients, towards food for the Comedor (Children's diner), as well as a small stipend to the person running the store.  Nothing gets wasted in San Pedro. 

(If you are updating your kitchen, bathrooms or other rooms, we will take things that are in working condition ... it will all be reused and not go in the dump.) Remaining items are set aside to be given to families in the greatest need.
