Pina Palmera definitely needs some loving support. I was over there the other day and there was a lot of standing water. There was a bad smell coming from it or somewhere. I am not sure of the situation there but I know that they survive on donations.
If you have supported them in the past I would definitely suggest you contact them and see what you can do to help out. If you are not aware
Zipolite was hit with Hurricane Carlota in June 2012. Please lend a hand and help out if you can.

We are dreaming of a society, where EVERYBODY recognizes and respects differences !
Piña Palmera Centro de Atención Infantil, A.C. is a
non-governmental organization (NGO), legally constituted without any
political or religious interest, which has tackled since more than 20
years the issue disability of persons of any age from rural communities,
its majority are indigenous people. We are working in the southern
coast of Oaxaca on rehabilitation, social integration, information and
prevention of any kind of disability (physical, intellectual or
conductive), without bearing in mind the grade of disability, ability to
pay and/or ethnicity.
