Join Positive Legacy and SCI’s Michael Travis in Central Vallarta on December 9th for a day of giving back, community action and celebration!
Central Vallarta, a small village about 20 minutes from Puerto Morelos, was once a hub for chicle gum production, a key industry in Mexico until the 1980s. Today, the town thrives on tourism and residential development, though many residents face challenges due to rising costs and limited local work opportunities.
For the third visit in 12 years, Positive Legacy is continuing our support for this community. Previous projects include expanding the school in 2003 and building a clinic in 2012. This year, we plan to install a community drinking water filtration system to provide locally accessible clean water, replacing costly bottled water that is trucked into the community.
On December 9th, we invite 50 guests to join us as we help paint and complete projects at the school, revamp the community park area and build playground equipment for the local children. Afterward, we will relax at Cenote Verde Lucero with swimming, zip-lining, and local music before returning to the resort for another evening of great music at The Mexico Incident.
Activities for the day will include:
- Assembling the water filtration system
- Painting school & murals
- Landscape updates to community park area
- Assembling new playground equipment
- Swimming & zipline at the cenote
- Lunch & live local music
*The revenue from ticket sales help to offset the costs associated with the Day of Service, including supplies and materials, transportation, food, payments for local cooks and musicians, cenote entrance fee, etc.
