rocky squirrel: 2012/2013 La Manzanilla School Supply Drive ? VisitLaManzanilla ...

Heading down to La Manzanilla this winter? I invite you to check out the below list of items our local schools could us this year. Each August La Manzanilla?s school children head back to school and many of them lack the school materials they need. Not unlike students in North America, each student is required to provide their own notebooks, pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners, glue, and crayons. However, many of the children in La Manzanilla come from large families who may not be able to provide school supplies when they are faced more pressing needs like food, medicine and clothing for the family. VisitLaManzanilla.com and La Catalina Foundation have partnered to support local school children and help them succeed in school.

Want to help a child succeed in school?

Please considering bringing some of the following items with you, or support local businesses and buy the items here.

All items can be dropped off with me and they will be distributed in January.? Contact me at june@visitlamanzanilla.com with questions.
