Coco’s to Host 10th Anniversary Cocktail Party
On Saturday, March 30, Coco’s Animal Welfare will host its 10th Anniversary Cocktail Party in Playa del Carmen. There will be drinks, live music, and a silent auction. This is a fantastic opportunity to help support this incredible local non-profit animal rescue.
Coco’s Animal Welfare is a non-profit organization dedicated to humanely reducing and controlling cat and dog populations in Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya through their permanent clinic facility and mobile spay and neuter clinics. Low cost or free sterilization is provided for pets, street dogs and cats, and animals rescued by local rescue groups.
Since the organization was founded, Coco’s has spayed and neutered more than 34,026 animals, helping to greatly reduce the number of unwanted cats and dogs in Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya. Some of their programs include regular spay/neuter clinics, kitten support, cat cafes at hotels and resorts, rescue and adoption programs, and community outreach.
Coco’s 10th Anniversary Cocktail Party and silent auction is taking place March 30, 2019 at the Fiesta Inn in downtown Playa del Carmen. The party starts at 8pm. All proceeds from this event benefit Coco’s Animal Welfare so they can continue their important work helping cats and dogs in the community. They are also currently looking for sponsors and prize donations.
Presale tickets are available now for $250 pesos ($15 USD). Your ticket gets you into the event and includes two cocktails, plus the opportunity to bid on amazing prizes. Tickets can be purchased online and at Coco's Clinic in Playa del Carmen. To buy your ticket at the clinic, visit Monday to Saturday from 8am-4pm, and Wednesdays from 8am-12pm.
If you won’t be in town to attend, but would still like to make a monetary donation to help support Coco’s Animal Welfare, you can do so by visiting their website, cocosanimalwelfare.org.
