Annual Fundraiser for New Life Mexico Sarah Elengorn - Sarah Elengorn Real Estate
December 24, 2011

On December 8th, the annual fundraiser took place for the UK charity New Life Mexico, currently operating in Puerto Vallarta, at a supporter's fabulous home in downtown Vallarta.

The event was well attended by local supporters who enjoyed the delicious brunch served by Christine and Jeanine who run the much loved "Encanto" restaurant.

Guests were treated to warm cinnamon rolls and fresh pastries on arrival, then a wide array of freshly produced buffet servings for the sit down brunch. Similar tasty treats from Encanto can be found at the restaurant, located on 518 Aquiles Serdan, Colonia Emiliano Zapata – Tel 222-5785.

The guests had a selection of Christmas items and gift baskets to choose from, lovingly donated by supporters, of which all proceeds went to New Life Mexico.

The funds raised (almost 30,000 pesos) will be going towards NLM's field programs: buying water filters and UV lamps for the Water Houses In Schools Project, providing clean, filtered drinking water for school children and the local community in marginal areas in Vallarta; and craft materials and basketball equipment for the after school programs they help coordinate.

New Life Mexico (NLM) supports local children who suffer from abuse (mental, physical, sexual or economic).
