Visiting Cancun? Go to Orphanage

My wife and I have made arrangements with Entertainment Plus to take us to the orphanage to drop of a suitcase of clothing and other essentials. Does anyone have a physical address or phone number that can be provided? It sounds like an easy find once in the village of Bonfil but we would like to get an address just to ensure our driver finds the location. Thanks everyone and thank you all for thinking of these children when in Cancun. Thomas Toy

We had Entertainment Plus take our family of 8 from the Cancun cruise terminal to the orphanage last December. Once in Bonfil the driver asked a local person for directions to Casa Hogar Esperanza and found it very easily. Entertainment Plus' drivers are very professional and will go the extra mile to help you out. They are the best company to assist you on your trip there and you will have no problem finding it. Please post directions on our site when you return.

My husband and i got a cabbie from our motel Grand Caribe Real and since we had the name and rough directions we were able to get there.

Besides clothing they need bandaids and anti-bacterial creams.
anti-biotics were needed as well...good leather shoes for the kids.

The couple who live across the street are terrific people to visit as well as they are from Michigan I believe. Any spare lap tops or kids educational games are very much needed as they had JUST gotten their first computer!@!

Very very sweet experience.

I am extremely interested in dropping off a suitcase as well as having boxes delivered to this orphanage...is there a website of any specifics that they need?? Also can you just show up or is there an email I can get in touch with them.

I am leaving on Nov 8 and will be in Mexico until Nov 15.

Thanks

I would like to drop a suitcase off at the orphanage. Does anyone have a phone number? I don't speak Spanish but my good friend does...what type of clothes do they need? How old are the kids there? Leather shoes for babies- 10th grade or what? Any advice would be well received.

Thank you, and please email it to me if it isn't too much of a bother.

Has anyone adopted from here? How difficult is it, how much time/ money is involved?

The people that run the orphanage have adopted the children. There are about 18 to 24 children ranging in ages from 3 to 17. Unfortunately no phone number is available. Good quality durable clothes are always needed in all sizes (sweaters, shirts, pants, shoes).

Hi There - I will be vacationing in Cancun over Christmas holidays and wanted to put together dental goody bags as am a Dental Instructor with Okanagan College in Kelowna, British Columbia Canada. Would love to know how I would reach your establishment as will be staying at the Gran Bahia Principe Akumal.

Could you please assist me with getting these little treasures to those children at your orphanage?

Sincere thanks
Darcy Shaw

You are good guy Darcy Shaw. The orphan children will be grateful to you for your kindness!

My family and I were just at Casa Hogar Esperanza four days ago to deliver toys, crayons and stuffed animals to the kids. There are currently 16 boys (aged two to 16) and two girls (one is a tall slim teenager and we did not see the other one). To get there, from the main highway through Cancun, turn west onto Alfred v. Bonfil, go to the second street and turn left. Casa Hogar is on the fifth block of that road, on the right hand side. The name is painted in blue, on the light yellow coloured building. There is a locked gate that you will be let into. Our driver said the grey building beside it is a church. The children are very gracious and beautiful. They need good quality shoes, clothing and basic toiletires (toothbrushes and soap). You will be glad that you went!
