Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – For many, visiting the R.I.S.E. children’s shelter during the holiday season is an annual tradition. Since, due to the pandemic, they are unable to welcome visitors this year, they will be broadcasting the Children’s Christmas Posada – Live on Facebook! – on December 23, 2020 at 4:00 pm.
Everyone is invited to enjoy this year’s Pastorela, the re-enactment of the Birth of Jesus, performed by the R.I.S.E. children. Just go to the RISE Puerto Vallarta FACEBOOK page TODAY at 4:00 pm to watch the kids’ Christmas pageant. It will make a great addition to your family’s holiday traditions.
The Refugio Infantil Santa Esperanza (R.I.S.E.) “Provides a safe and caring home for children who are at risk” and each day we look for ways that we can carry out this mission. Most of our financial support comes from private and corporate donations; we receive a very a small amount of support from the Mexican government for medical, child development, and nutritional care.
How You Can Help
We know these are tough times for everyone, as families support their communities and relatives during COVID. Your R.I.S.E. family needs your support, too, as COVID continues to challenge the economy. Food staples the children consume each month, and a few household items and repairs are needed to keep R.I.S.E. operating in an appropriate, safe and sanitary manner.
In an effort to keep R.I.S.E. on the RISE, we ask that you please click HERE and press the DONATE button, – every little bit helps! Monthly donation options are also available, and preferred, if possible, as it helps with budgeting and planning.
We thank you for your generous support and hope you will continue to do so through these difficult times!
