It's that time of the year again! La Manzanilla's annual school supply drive is on. I'm working with La Catalina Foundation to help get the word out about what the schools need as well as collecting and storing all the items until we distribute everything in January. If you can bring a few things down great, or you can further support the local economy by purchasing items here in La Manzanilla.

Contact me at june@visitlamanzanilla.com with further questions or to arrange a drop-off time. Thanks!
