Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico - SETAC, Puerto Vallarta's LGBTQ Community Center, announced an important donation in the amount of $180,140 pesos from the organizers of Beef Dip, an annual circuit party that takes place in Puerto Vallarta during the months of January and February.

"Year after year, the international bear community makes Puerto Vallarta their winter destination of choice," explained SETAC's Executive Director, Paco Arjona.
