de Vida founder Hilda Pacheco-Taylor will present an overview of the
organization and their work in Baja to help orphaned and abandoned
children.
Corazon de Vida,
or "Heart of Life", was founded to address child homelessness and the
lack of support to orphanages in the state of Baja California, Mexico.
"CDV coordinates corporate, community and volunteer support to provide
funds, volunteer help, and a caring hand to the children of Baja. Funds
raised pay for food, utilities and the other basic necessities of life.
We seek to end the cycle of poverty and homelessness by providing not
only food and shelter, but improving quality of life and fostering
education." said Pacheco-Taylor. Corazon de Vida now provides support
for 16 Baja orphanages that care for more than 800 children total.
There will be an outstanding silent auction for everyone's enjoyment and live music performance by Manny Cepeda, bringing his collection of Salsa/Merengue music from his native Puerto Rico. Space is limited for this special evening and tickets, priced at $30.00, are expected to sell quickly. Please visit http://dec9sd.eventbrite.com/f
