Puerto Vallarta - Holding their plates as they move in a polite line in front of the big pans of food, 170 of Puerto Vallarta's most needy citizens get a hot meal today. Every Monday, a handful of restaurants in this tropical paradise take their specialties to the local dump, to feed the kids in a loosely organized effort called Children of the Dump.


There is pasta, beans, rice, quesadillas, sandwiches, roast pork and gravy.

Lots of food for everyone!

The gates on a walled enclosure open to a dirt yard whose dominant feature is a huge pavilion, open on two sides, with a palapa roof and a tiled floor.

Pencils, toothbrushes, hair clips, t-shirts at the "store."

Moms and kids waited in the most orderly and patient line up, clutching their little numbered tickets.

There is the candy.
