INTRODUCING YOU TO H E L P !
The primary purpose of H E L P ! is to assist people who are visiting and living in the Manzanillo area by providing them with the most up to date information available via phone, FAX, or online.
Our charter with the Mexican government permits us to sponsor any type of social or recreational activity anywhere in Mexico. There are many causes worthy of our attention for everyone to get involved. H E L P ! will back you and guide you.
Three years ago we started the “Christmas for The Children” yearly event, which is included in our charter. We selected over 100 disadvantaged children from the various barrios in the Manzanillo area, and gave them an unforgettable Christmas they would never have had otherwise. H E L P ! is able to achieve this task thru contributions from members, non-members and business organizations. We also give our time and work free to any charity that belongs to our association at their request to promote their needs within both the foreign community and our Mexican neighbors. Manzanillo is becoming the new haven to get married or renew your marriage nuptuals. H E L P ! can arrange these services for you accommodating any type of affordable setting depending upon your needs, and we can be there to translate your ceremony into English for you!
Bonnie Sumlin was elected General Director of H E L P ! because of her work within the foreign and Mexican communities and because of her excellent relations with all the Mexican government agencies. H E L P ! provides a unique service to members not available from other organizations in our area or in probably all of Mexico. Any member or contributor will receive our quarterly newsletter, “As the Palapa Spins”, which keeps you informed on anything pertaining to our presence in the area or in Mexico.
H E L P ! is unique in that it promotes the Mexican Community also. We see that our members are informed with the services at hand, regular or emergency. Almost one-third of our membership belongs to the Mexican Community! The association was named H E L P ! because we go far beyond social and charitable causes. We respond to people who need assistance. We have members as far away as Guadalajara, Melaque, Barra de Navidad, La Manzanilla, Villa de Obregon, San Pedro, and San Luis Soyatlan, Jalisco, as well as Cuauhtémoc and Colima, Colima. Please contact us for further information. Phone: 333-40977 FAX 333-40977 & 333-42447
