Support The Cozumel Sun!
Supporting Us is Supporting the Cozumel Community
Your patronage makes it possible for us to continue our Community Assistance Program. During the pandemic we raised thousands of dollars to support the community kitchens. This, in addition to our own food contributions to the community.
The goal of the Community Assistance program is to aid individuals and families in a crisis. This can be emergency food, medical expenses, or medication. Since my health crisis, we have lean more towards supporting existing programs such as “Todos Somos Cozumel” and their free clinic. However, we continue supporting two of our original struggling families. This includes purchasing food and school related expenses for children. There is a “drop in” meal policy. We feed the hungry, no questions asked. We have always coordinated our services with other existing community programs.
