Message From Corazon de Vida President Hilda Pacheco-Taylor   

  

  

Happy Holidays to our Corazon de Vida Angels!


The holiday season is a great time for reflecting on the many blessings we received throughout the year.  At Corazon de Vida Foundation, we have been blessed with your support, commitment and partnership and we are grateful for that blessing. You have generously given your time, talents and resources throughout the year and have provided not only life-sustaining support for over 850 children living in 16 orphanages throughout Baja, but you have also provided the much needed love and attention during your cross-border visits.     

 

We know there are challenges ahead as our nation and the world adjusts to the new economic environment.  We also know that together we must face those challenges as we continue to fulfill on the possibility of a better future for hundreds of very deserving kids, OUR kids.

 

Wishing you joy, peace and prosperity today and always.

CDV at the 2012 Tournament of Roses Parade

Kit Cat Clocks  has given us the honor of participating on their float for the 2012 Rose Parade. This will be wonderful exposure for CDV and will give us a chance to let others know of the need of so many children in Baja orphanages.

MARIBEL GUILLEN LANE, a long time resident of  the El Faro Orphanage, will ride on the float as a representative of every child living in a Baja orphanage. Watch the parade on Monday January 2 and see Maribel as she experiences this opportunity of a lifetime.

We also have VIP Rose Parade Grandstand tickets and Rose Bowl tickets on eBay as part of this promotion. Please see our CDV EBAY SITE for more information.

Thank you KIT CAT CLOCKS for this wonderful opportunity to help Corazon de Vida and raise awareness of our cause.
