Huge hugs and thank you to Sarah & Owen!

Thank you Sarah and Owen! Sarah and Owen Gartner  the children of Lois and Greg sent down a wonderful surprise to Puerto Vallarta! After a family discussion about sharing with less fortunate both Sarah and Owen ran with the idea. With the help of their classmates and their teammates to assist a collection for shoes and school supplies grew.  What an amazing job Sarah and Owen! We were so  happy to receive your donation to Cheryl’s Shoebox. Make sure to thank your  friends at Fultonvale and Strathcona Minor Hockey for us. The soccer shoes are something that are very expensive in Mexico and you have encouraged us to think of the best way to collect more soccer shoes and be able to supply schools in Mexico with more Shoes and Equipment.     Recommend on Facebook Tweet about...

Progresso, Lomas, Perota & Salitrillo

On December 26th our leader Vicki and 15 Volunteers took to the road to give shoes out to 3 new colonias  and a program that was brought to the attention of Cheryl’s Shoebox. The program is one that Pastor Mario Santillan has put together in 4 colonias (Progresso, Lomas, Perota & Salitrillo). The after­ school programs are located in several communities where drugs, alcohol and poverty are on going problems. Some children quit going to school in their early teens because of the poverty. The after­ school program includes a hot meal, English classes, and help with schoolwork. These after­ school programs also bring in professionals (e.g. firefighters, police and nurses) to speak with the children. The positive effect on the children is great and worthy of all the support we can give to assist these programs. On Saturday we were able to put over 300 pairs of shoes on some very happy children. We could not have done this without our volunteers.. Thanks to every one of you for a great day! Pastor Mario Santillan Ron Almstead Maureen Faickney-Gould Will Horton All the volunteers from Paradise Community Center Lewis and Josh Moreno Adam Bishop. Thank you all! Pictures to Follow.
