Zumbathon a ton of fun!

This morning almost 50 people came out to the Zumbathon fundraiser at the ejido hall! Everyone had a great time dancing, getting some great exercise, and then enjoying (well deserved) cookies and cakes!

The event was a fundraiser for La Catalina Educational Foundation and La Manzanilla’s daycare and raised 2500 pesos. After paying the teachers from Melaque and Cihuatlan and a few small expenses, each organization received just under 900 pesos. La Catalina Foundation will use the proceeds to buy notebooks for every student from grades 4-7 receiving English classes with us in the public schools. The Daycare will use the proceeds to finish painting the new space they are in.

We are very grateful to everyone who donated and helped make this event so much fun:

June N., Guacamole Restaurant, Debbie D., Chayo M., Isaura M., La Catalina Natural Language School, Abarrotes Requena, Traver R., Steven R., Sandra S., Nancy W., and Judith R.

And a huge Thank You and hats off to all who attended! If you didn’t have a chance to participate and would like to give a donation, please contact us at la_catalinafoundation@hotmail.com.
