Hogar Infantil Marsh will gladly accept any of the following Donations: Vitamins, medicines, clothes, shoes and tennis shoes (new or used), sandals, shampoo, hair rinse or conditioner, toilet paper, soap, toothpaste, cooking oil, beans, rice, sugar, milk (long shelf life), etc.
Unfortunately, current Mexican Customs Laws defining what specific items are allowed to be shipped to Mexico; and, the Taxes we would need to pay for the Donated Items shipped to the Marsh Children's Home, simply make it cost-prohibitive to send items from outside of Mexico.
Due to the difficulty of importing goods to Mexico — if you are interested in donating staple goods such as food, clothing, personal hygiene products, soaps, etc. — we recommend simply making a Financial Donation on our website.
The BEST OPTION, for those who are already planning a visit to Acapulco, is simply to bring the items with you, OR BETTER STILL BUY THEM HERE IN MEXICO. You can even order them online at Sam's Club Mexico, specify the Acapulco "Diamante" location, and Sam's will deliver your donation directly to the Marsh Home. It's less than a 10 minute drive from Sam's Club to the Marsh Home in Playa Bonfil.
If you are planning a Visit to Acapulco and would like to bring Donations with you on the airplane, a representative of Hogar Infantil Marsh will gladly pick you up at the airport and take you to the hotel of your choosing in Acapulco - as a way to Thank You for your generosity! These are part of the multitude of Services provided by Hogar Infantil Marsh to Donors, Sponsors and Professional Volunteers.
If you'd like to bring donated items for the kids at Hogar Infantil Marsh, please contact Jovita Godínez directly and ask her what items are most needed at the time. We will use your kind donation for the children's basic necessities. We thank you in advance for you kind generosity!
