Is it a stroke?

A stroke victim can suffer brain damage if the symptoms are not recognized quickly.

You can help diagnose stroke, even if you are not a trained professional:

1. Ask the person to smile.
2. Ask him/her to raise both arms.
3. Ask the person to speak a simple sentence.

If the individual has difficulty with
any of these simple tasks, call for medical help immediately.



Calendar for Cruz Roja Fundraising Events & Activities

Cruz Roja Chapala has a monthly budget of approximately $250,000 pesos. We currently receive about $140,000 pesos per month from patients donating funds to cover the expenses incurred during their treatment.

Our Cruz Roja Chapala Volunteers work tirelessly on local fund raising events throughout the year to obtain the additional $110,000 pesos per month thereby enabling the Cruz Roja Chapala to continue serving the entire Lakeside Community.

We appreciate any help we can get, our resources are stretched to the limit! Please use our help page and give as much as possible. Every Peso or Dollar is important.

You may use your credit cards or PayPal account to make a donation now or you may take your donation to the Cruz Roja table at the Lake Chapala Society during their open hours or to the Cruz Roja in Chapala which is open 24/7.
You can help by attending these events or by making a donation that is
tax deductible under the tax laws of
both the US and Canada.
