Vallarta Cares is a humanitarian organization dedicated to bringing food, clean water, and dignity to those in need throughout Puerto Vallarta and its surrounding areas. Thanks to the generosity of our donors and the dedication of hundreds of volunteers, we have been able to make a meaningful impact in our community.

Our programs focus on meeting essential needs while upholding the dignity of those we serve and are divided into the following key areas:
