Keep in mind please! You can make a difference at. Bet Shalom, home for at risk seniors located in Las Pozas just the other side of Coacoyul.
Volunteer! Your gift of time with and for our seniors will do far more for you than you realize. The language barrier does not exist when there is a true caring spirit. Anyone can sing, play an instrument, do nails or massage, play dominoes, teach jewellery making or other simple skills and the list goes on.
Volunteers are absolutely key in our home. Be intentional about it. Schedule it each week. The rewards will be great. And you will be the richer for having done this

Fruits and veggies of any description. We have a garden and with hope and a few less of the neighbours chickens we may yet be able to provide for many of our needs!! Think about it and let us know if you decide to help.

It's lots of fun. In May and June it's best to walk them only in the morning. Opens 9 am daily, closed Sundays.

Planning our trip for late May/early June as normal. We (parents & college aged daughters) are looking to do a few things to 'give back' to the community that has been great to us over the years.

Zihuatanejo makes it's money from tourism. The best way you can help is to spend money. Eat out, drink out, shop for presents, buy summer clothes, go fishing, take a day tour. That money will help the community more than you spending a day NOT spending money doing "helpful"somethings.

Who/how could we get some ideas on how to do things to help out a few days? Our spanish is not great which I know isn't helpful.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

E
