Calling All Volunteers and Donors! K'iin Beh School Needs Our Help
K’iin Beh school is a beautiful little school designed for low-income children in the Playa del Carmen area. Located near Cristo Rey, the school is in the process of growing and expanding thanks to generous donations from local Riviera Maya organizations and businesses. However, right now K’iin Beh is in desperate need of our help.
Christina Calabrese from K’iin Be is reaching out to the Playa del Carmen expat community for donations and volunteers. She says, “The students are returning to school in a week. They will have a new building that was built with donations from hotels, Sea Side Rotary Club, and numerous other donors. We have nothing in the class rooms! I have 8 days to create magic!”

- Monetary donation (the school needs to raise about $500 USD per classroom and can provide a Mexican tax donation form)
