Don’t Miss the FUNdraiser Benefiting the Puppy Paradise Shelter The Yvonneka Foundation
November 11, 2021

Puppy Paradise Puerto Vallarta (Yvonneka Foundation)

The Yvonneka Foundation is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to the rescue of dogs off the streets of Puerto Vallarta since 2012.

The Foundation supports the Puppy Paradise no-kill shelter where the dogs are provided with the care they need and a loving environment. They are nursed back to health, and physically and socially rehabilitated, until forever homes can be found for them in the United States and Canada.

And we’re not talking about a shelter facility of sad and lonely dogs in small individual kennels, Puppy Paradise is a loving group home for dogs, where they play freely with each other and have the run of a 3-story house with a huge yard, and they even have their own pool!

The Foundation relies entirely on donations, of which 100% goes to the care of the animals, and your donation is entirely tax-deductible. Your contribution will help provide the 24-hour staff and expenses of the shelter, veterinary care, and the feeding of not only shelter animals, but also strays throughout town! And they also provide educational programs in schools on the importance of proper pet care.

Coming up on Saturday, December 11, the Yvonneka Foundation will be hosting its party-of-the-year FUNdraising event, titled “Frida VI,” benefiting Puppy Paradise and other animal associations who will be represented at the party, such as the Cuale Spay Clinic. Guests are encouraged to dress within the “Frida” theme, and there will be a contest honoring the best Frida and Diego.



Casa Yvonneka

The event will be held at the fabulous Casa Yvonneka, a luxurious resort boasting a breathtaking view of the Romantic Zone, the Lady of Guadalupe Church, and the bay. It is also known for its exceptional cuisine and 5-star service.

The party starts at 6:30pm with a cocktail mixer in the Star Gazer Lounge, featuring an open bar, appetizers, and lots of fun and interesting people to meet and hang out with. The mixer is optional and will cost you a few dollars more, but it’s all for a great cause and is a great way to start the party off!

Then at 7:45 dining and dancing on the pool terrace will begin, with an open bar and your choice of delicious main course options served with a delightful array of wines, and a dinner show yet to be announced. Dining, dancing, and drinking will continue on into the wee hours of the morning, providing plenty of opportunity for fun and socializing. What better way to show your generosity to support the improvement of the lives of these needy street animals who deserve their chance for a happier life?
