RISE Fundraiser Tickets at Hotel Mercurio
 Paul Crist - PVNN
February 01, 2010
| | Tickets to this fun and worthwhile fundraising event are available at Hotel Mercurio, Francisca Rodríguez #168 on the south side of Puerto Vallarta. | |
By now, you’ve probably heard about R.I.S.E. in Puerto Vallarta... it is the Refugio Infantil Santa Esperanza. R.I.S.E provides a home for abandoned children and those who were removed from violent domestic situations where there had been abuse.
Presently, they care for 50 children; infants in cribs, toddlers and children from 6 to 12 years old. Additionally, adolescents currently live in a separate house, and all of them attend secondary school. In fact, all the children attend school outside the refuge (14 in preschool, 22 in primary and 4 in secondary schools). Since beginning more than eight years ago, R.I.S.E has supported more than 250 transitory children while they remained with them for a short period of time.
On Saturday, February 6, from 5 to 9 pm, R.I.S.E. will present their big annual fund raiser, R.I.S.E. for HOPE, at the American School in Marina Vallarta. This event includes the participation of some of the finest restaurants in Vallarta; an auction of items donated by local businesses; and live entertainment. All for $450 pesos per person.

 The Refugio Infantil Santa Esperanza is a non-profit shelter for babies and children under the age of 14. Some of these children are orphans but most come from unbearable situations having been abused, neglected, or simply abandoned. R.I.S.E. is a Mexican non-profit charitable organization, which accepts donations through a number of charitable organizations. More information about tax deductible donations can be found at their website: Refugio-Infantil.org. |
