Helping kids over 50 years because of your help

Our home receives very little financial support from the Mexican government. 
For over 50 years we have operated on the generous donations of our friends.
Thank you for your gifts. They are a continuous encouragement to us!

A few notes:

  • Please make checks payable to “El Sauzal Foundation” and not Home for Children or Orphanage.
  • We are  able to accept credit card donations online.
  • If you would like to designate your gift, contact our treasurer Roger Christianson.
  • When donating, do not specify an individual to give the money to. If you specify an individual, per IRS form 526, your donation is not tax-deductible.

Does it make a difference if I give to El Sauzal Home for Children or El Sauzal Foundation?
Yes, if you want to receive a tax deduction. The foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) charity registered in the US to help raise funds for our home; foundation donations are tax-deductible. El Sauzal Home for Children is a Mexican corporation and is not eligible for non-profit status in the US; donations to our home are not tax-deductible.
