Help Haitian earthquake survivors NOW          The Cancun Rotary Club is realizing the collection of food, medicine, and school supplies for the benefit of Haitian earthquake survivors.

Centers of collection are being set-up in Cancun. To begin with, they will be open Saturday and Sunday, January 16 & 17. These will be manned by members of the Cancun Rotary Club, Cancun Hotel Zone Rotary Club and the new (in formation) Cancun Bicentenario Club as well as by members of the Cancun Rotaract Club and the Cancun Interact Club (in formation).

Goods and cash donations can be received at the Soriana supermarket located at the intersection of Coba and Kabah, at the Mega Comercial Mexicana located on Kabah Avenue, or at the Universidad Latinoamericana de Quintana Roo, A.C.
