A little more about Corazon de Vida Foundation: For 25 years we have been providing life-sustaining assistance to 10 orphanages which provide a loving and secure environment for more than 500 children. The orphanages we support are all located within a couple of hours from our Mexico/San Diego border, giving us the ability to stay connected and aware of their most pressing needs. Through our continuing education program, we provide past orphanage residents the opportunity to go to college or technical school (currently at 40+), giving them the tools needed to succeed in life. We organize monthly one-day trips (chartered bus) to visit the children, we pick up in LA, OC, and SD. Trips are always posted on this link: http://www.corazondevida.org/events and you can read reviews from past visitors here: http://greatnonprofits.org/org/corazon-de-vida-foundation
