The Hollywood-themed local screening event raised $117,000 pesos for Becas Vallarta, Toys for Tots, and Asilo San Juan Diego.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - When Timothy Real Estate Group was contacted to audition for the Reality TV show House Hunters International, it was a surprise and an opportunity they welcomed. For the very first time Puerto Vallarta had an opportunity to show itself off to millions of viewers and let everyone see how beautiful it is to live here and what the Real Estate buying process can be like for foreigners. The program follows Buyers through the adventure of choosing a new home, Buyers who want to invest in Puerto Vallarta.

Filming was completed in January, so the program was able to feature some of Puerto Vallarta’s biggest stars, the whales in the bay. Lifestyle scenes were shot throughout the town with Tequila tasting, strolling the Malecon, and some of Vallarta’s beautiful beaches implemented in the filming.


The first airing of the episode was in the United States on April 16th and it ran again on the 5th of May. The episode will not air in Canada and Mexico until later this year, but this created a super opportunity to hold a fundraiser and a screening here in Mexico.

The House Hunters Charity Fundraiser event, held May 28th at Daiquiri Dick's beachfront restaurant, had an Old Hollywood theme. Becas Vallarta AC, the Puerto Vallarta Navy League’s Toys for Tots program, and the Asilo San Juan Diego were all chosen as beneficiaries for the screening event.

Becas Vallarta has helped thousands of children over the last 50 years with scholarships, and this year is helping 400 children. The Navy League does so many wonderful things for the kids of the area and Toys for Tots is a wonderful way to help those children have fewer opportunities. The magnificent Asilo San Juan Diego is an incredible facility that offers assisted living for some of Puerto Vallarta’s beautiful senior citizens. It’s a place for seniors to live, offers some medical and nutritional care, and gives them a home and the care they need.

There was a surprising overflow turn out at the event and they were able to raise $117,000 pesos - some much-needed funds for the charities. 100% of all proceeds went to the Becas, Toys for Tots, and Asilo San Juan Diego. You can see all of the images from the event here.
