Success at first Becas Breakfast of the season

Vitea’s, Head Waiter Marco, and his friendly staff were at their best for the first Becas Breakfast of the season that was a sell out. There was much fun, visiting and renewing friendships. Gil Gevins kept the guests amused with his wonderful sense of humor during the raffle drawing. Orlando Santamaria, a former Becado, told his heartfelt story of what being supported by Becas did for his life and how it made him realize that this opportunity was life changing.

La Palapa restaurant is the location for the December Becas Breakfast. Your menu choices will be the following: crepes filled with spinach, mushrooms, eggs with a cheddar cheese sauce; French toast with a topping of almonds and cinnamon with fresh fruit with coconut cream; tea or coffee, and fresh orange juice. Our hope is that you are there to share in the fun and support this very worthy cause.

Over 300 students are becados in the Becas Vallarta program. Most of these students would not be able to attend school without this financial aid. Many of our former Becados have gone on to become Doctors, lawyers, Engineers, among other careers.

You can help! Your attendance at the Becas Breakfasts helps provide scholarships to Puerto Vallarta students having grades of 9.0 or better.

This past Saturday, Dec. 5th, the board members of Becas Vallarta hosted the annual Posada for their scholarship recipients.The Christmas Party celebrates the high academic achievements of the Becados. The students enjoyed a hot meal, with plenty of treats from the piñatas, and a performance of Folk Loric dancing.

Becas Vallarta, A.C. is a non-profit, tax deductible Mexican Foundation, charged with fund raising and administering the student scholarships in Puerto Vallarta. The America-Mexico Foundation, Inc., founded in 1961, is a non-profit USA tax deductible foundation (under section 501 (C) (#) of the IRS code) that donates all funds raised to finance those scholarships.
