1. Make your check payable to “Foundation for Lake Chapala Charities”.  Please enclose a note stating your email address and the name of the organization to which your donation is designated.  Mail your check as directed below:

         Mail from the U.S. or Canada – send to:
         5802 Bob Bullock, Ste. 328C-4A

Checks written locally should be placed in an envelope, marked “FOUNDATION – BOX 4A” and dropped off at the front desk at HandyMail in San Antonio or given to one of the directors.  Handy Mail is located one block east of Super Lake on the carreterra.

Checks drawn on recognized US or Canadian Banks are accepted. Checks drawn on a Credit Union account are not accepted in Mexico.

Please note:  It is recommended that a wire transfer be used to make any donation in excess of $250 US dollars.  A wire transfer to the Foundation’s bank account will expedite your donation reaching your designated charity.  Checks greater that $250 USD must be sent by our local bank branch to their Mexico City office for processing and this takes up to eight weeks to reach our account for distribution of the funds to charities.
