The degree of specialization that has been achieved in the tourism sector has also led to diversity in the type and level of organizations that surround it, including the number of associates, the frequency with which they meet and the problems that each reviews and addresses. The members work together with a single purpose: excellence in tourism.

In Los Cabos, there are many associations connected to tourism. They range

training centers and universities. Of course, there are also those that want to periodically meet specialists and guests from other parts of the planet, or, simply socialize and network with their associates.

The origin of all this is the tourist. Tourism has systematically chosen this destination for conventions, group meetings, weddings, special events, concerts, honeymoons, anniversaries, family or couple vacations, dining experiences, golf, art exhibitions or just a pleasant rest.

For this reason and many more, tourists feel relaxed and cared for in an atmosphere of casual sophistication. That allows him or her to casually live alongside national and international celebrities and artists.

1. ¿Dónde naciste?

Where are you from?

Originally from the state of Oregon. I came to Mexico in friend in Acapulco, and we spent four months driving all over the country. That was the moment I fell in love with Mexico and could never get it out my thoughts.

So, in 1982, there was a big recession in the United in the timeshare industry. I thought, well, I'm not doing anything else and I’m not married. I thought I’d live on the beach, in the sunshine. I’d work four hours a day and be I thought! I couldn’t imagine building a career in Mexico.

2. ¿Cuál es tu experiencia en el área de Bienes Raíces?

What is your experience in Real Estate?

I actually started in the timeshare industry and, at the time, I worked with people that were very much pioneers in the business. These were the early days of time share. It had only been around for about properties. So, I came down, got to work and found that I really liked the business of tourism. I rose quickly in the ranks and went from salesman to sales manager to sales director in a short period of time.

That pretty much launched my career.

When did you move to Los Cabos? that was completely vertically integrated. I was Director of Sales, not a partner. However, we were a company that purchased land, traveler. We included kitchens, daily maid services and all the other conveniences necessary for being on vacation. I worked my way up in the ranks and became Sales Director. But, you know, I wanted more.

I had kind of reached my peak with them. to Luis María Torres, to Owen Perry, to my brother Bob Kistner, to all to be successful. But I wanted to be a developer and be able to grow.

To be honest, I was not going to get that opportunity with them.

I came to Los Cabos on April 10th, 1989. I was shocked. Beautiful, unbelievable beaches, and a small town. In a way it was as if tourism a raw beauty. Somehow, I knew this was the place I needed to be. I went back, resigned my job, and moved to Cabo San Lucas.

En lugar de ser un empleado, me convertí en emprendedor.

Instead of being an employee, I became my own employer.

What does teamwork mean to you?

There are things that I like such as great talent, and there are things that I don’t have great talent for. So, I surround myself with people that have strengths in areas I do not. It is how we can form other’s strengths. personas, hacer que les guste el concepto y compartir un objetivo común. Encontrar el éxito en lo que sea que estés persiguiendo.

What do you like the most about working in this destination?

Están realmente orientados al servicio. Los Cabos no es solo un destino de playa, campos de golf y demás atractivos, su principal valor es su gente.

Well, let me say this: The people of Los Cabos are wonderful. They are open, and just like everybody else, they want to give their children an opportunity to grow, to have an education and to make a good living. For me, the weather here is spectacular 10 months out of the year and the environment is very welcoming to Americans.

The people here have been so welcoming. They are really service oriented and will give you their shirt of their back. That’s probably one of the greatest and most beautiful things about Los Cabos.

It’s not just a destination in terms of the beaches and climate, golf courses and other physical attributes, it is the people here, it is the culture.

6. ¿Qué te inspira?

What inspires you?

Mis hijas.

My daughters. And the young men and women who work for me, although I do not believe they work for me, I believe we work together. That’s really the thing about teamwork. I understand because I was them back then. To see them grow and get more skill is something that I enjoy here in our company.

We want people to have the opportunity to take their skills and form their own company.

That is the greatest compliment for us. We try to provide the environment were people have the opportunity to grow.

If you want to earn more, you must learn more; meaning that we must never stop learning. It is an ongoing communication process. And, of course, there is the golden rule: treat others as you wish to be treated. That actually goes without saying, but we say it anyway so there is no misunderstanding.

How do you see your company in the next few years?

Well, can you tell me what the new normal is going to be? We don’t know. What we do know is if we want to go forward, there are a few things that have to become kind of the norm for us.

We believe there is a tremendous opportunity here in Los Cabos to continuate to grow. Part of that is to redesign the tourism, sustainable development. We have a philosophy called “less is more.” I don’t want to see high rises or high density. That will ruin this destination. renowned resort destination and people from all over the world want to come here because of the climate, the of the most important luxury hotels in world. Not only that, we have thousands of Americans that are retired or have a second or third home here in an environment that is safe and secure. That is pretty cool, if you ask me.

Para mí, esa es la parte satisfactoria de este negocio: hacer lo imposible. Sabes que lo imposible lleva tiempo. Nunca decimos "no" a lo imposible y esas cosas que llamamos "milagros", bueno ... simplemente tardan un poco más.

For me, that’s the satisfying part of this business: to do the impossible. You know the impossible takes time. We never say “no” to the impossible and those things that we call “miracles,” well, they just take a little longer.

Si le preguntan a alguien que ha estado aquí durante 30 años o más, te dirán que los campos de golf literalmente cambiaron el destino. El primer campo de golf cambió de un pueblo de pescadores a un destino recreativo. Entonces Palmilla comenzó a convertirse en la marca más importante. Hoy lo llamo el "gran diamante".

ás allá del sushi y de los nuevos sabores que se incorporan a la cocina japonesa, la globalización puso al alcance platillos que no sabíamos que existían e hizo que culturas forjaran alianzas para presentarnos el umami, que sorprende y revoluciona nuestros sentidos.

eyond sushi and the usual flavors that are part of Japanese cuisine, globalization has made dishes available that we didn’t even know existed. As a result, cultural alliances have been forged that have exposed us to new tastes such as umami, a true surprise for the senses.

Experts and amateur foodies alike appreciate the fearless way Japanese cuisine has approached the challenge of raw and semi-raw creations.

Society has accepted this challenge with gusto. The combination of sweet and sour and a variety of new in the world today. At the same time, we ask: “At what point did Japanese cuisine become so popular?”

Twenty years ago, Japanese cuisine was unknown to most and was mainly reserved for cosmopolitan palates. The exotic ingredients and the idea of eating continents and little by little, fear became reverence. It was a type of revolution. Suddenly, we had restaurant names like Matsuhisa by chef Nobu Matsuhisa in California, and Nicksan by chef Angel Carbajal in Los Cabos who works under the mentorship of his friend and partner, Masayuki Niikura.

In order to take traditional Japanese cuisine and give it a unique touch, these two chefs decided to merge with Peruvian. The second was Japanese and Mexican.

En 1994, por primera vez, Nobu abrió sus puertas en Nueva York y, al mismo tiempo, Nicksan en Cabo San Lucas con algo parecido. En consecuencia, vino el boom de la cocina japonesa.

Nobu opened its doors in New York in 1994. About that time, Nicksan opened in Cabo San Lucas with something similar. The end result was a boom in Japanese cuisine.

The revolution in gastronomy reminds us that chefs are always reinventing themselves and discovering to them. A revelation occurs between the chef’s hands and the moment the creation is tasted by the toughest of critics - diners.

Creativity has become an integral part of who they are.

Without it, Japanese cuisine as we know it would not exist.

The stars joined in unison and the planets aligned. unimaginable presented to us that made us believe we needed a Japanese dish every day. Without it, what is life?

From that point on, those dishes have made history.

The kitchen changed and established a new culture that took on a life of its own. It revealed a sophistication of simplicity that, in turn, became complex.

Transformative Japanese cuisine welcomes new styles of cooking and, in a way, returns us to our origins. We have developed a smarter palate that enjoys the pleasures because the structure is so innocent, so fresh that only two products are required to become a work of art.

and ebi came to light. They became a way of educating the palate.

¿Cómo fue que aprendimos a refinar nuestro gusto y aceptar el sushi?

How did we learn to refine our taste and accept sushi?

Interestingly, sushi was sold as street food in Japan in the early 8th century and is said to have arrived in the United States in the late 1960s. But it was not until the 1990s that the number of restaurants increased on a large scale.

Borders were broken and a study by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries revealed that in July the globe. Not only that, the study found that two of the world’s most popular dishes were sushi and sashimi.

Hoy en día, no podemos imaginarnos la vida sin la cocina japonesa. Sin platillos que nos permiten sentir umami, que nos recuerdan la importancia de combinar culturas, como la mexicana y la japonesa, que traducido en Los Cabos se llama: Nicksan.

Today, we cannot imagine life without Japanese cuisine. What would we do without dishes that allow us to experience umami and that remind us of the importance of combining cultures, such as Mexican and Japanese? In Los Cabos, that cuisine translates to Nicksan.

Amid laughter and memories, Cristina tells us that being part of the Tendencia editorial team was a pure fluke and came out of kindness of the members.

I received a call one day from a colleague, this idea. Diana, one of the founding partners, had phone.

They came to my desk with excitement and enthusiasm. It was such a high-quality magazine and included foreigners, only one of them with South Californian roots. They made my heartbeat fast.

I was ready with South California history books on my table to guide them. I also agreed to be on the editorial board, a bit for fun and love for my land.

I set out to document the evolution of my home, beginning back when it took eight hours to get to La Paz by land and four hours to get to San Jose due to the ruggedness of the journey. There was a phone in San Jose del Cabo and my father had to go by private plane to make calls. accustomed to helping each other. We slept with open windows and doors.

On one occasion, my father picked up the payroll from the three hotels in La Paz but forgot it in a transparent money bag on the roof of the car he left parked at the airport. He took his plane to Los Cabos, a journey of about an hour. When he realized that he did not have the cash, he returned to La Paz and there was the money.

I do not get out much, but I get all the news about this destination from Tendencia. That is what I like about the magazine, it does not stay as a story, but invites you to experience the State.

Sometimes I complain that it is outsiders who appreciate what we have the most. Truth is, it had to be this way. Now Tendencia is rescuing the identity of this land, illustrating what it was and what it is. Of course, the magazine highlights the luxury that is on par with extraordinary places around the world. However, the content also describes the remote places that are unique to this peninsula and that are part of the essence of Baja California Sur.

Enrique Hambleton Una entrevista por mi trabajo documentando las pinturas rupestres como fotógrafo por más de 40 años y la publicación del libro “Lienzos de piedra”, me acercaron a la revista Tendencia, El Arte de Viajar.

An interview about my more than 40 years of work documenting cave paintings as a photographer and the publication of the book “Lienzos de piedra” brought me to Tendencia magazine.

An eloquent invitation and a strong desire to join the editorial board led me to accept immediately. Secondly, there were no publications focused on the trends of the Los Cabos area. For me, it was an interesting project that was well worth being part of.

South California is not well-known in the rest of the country. The cultural legacy is extremely important not only for the visitor but for those who inhabit this land.

Welcoming the traveler is an incredibly old tradition on this peninsula. People who live in remote places feel food to visitors. The other custom is to take care of the environment. Many years ago, there was no garbage.

Everything was reused because it was exceedingly The same people have taken me to 98 percent of the rock painting sites I have documented. They were my guides. They recorded the locations of the places they found while they were tending their goats. Forty years ago, they informed me in a letter and when I visited, they guided the way.

The most rewarding experience over the years has been to see the changes in the same people. Today, they take better care of the cave paintings and the environment because they understand the value. The course, they realize that it is a source of income for them, as well. We are already in the third generation of guides. The San Francisco Sierra put us on the world map as a World Heritage Site, but it also left us with a high degree of responsibility.

Curiosamente, conocí al equipo de Tendencia debido a una serie de 6 documentales titulados "Tradiciones en Video" que ha recibido premios y nominaciones.

El año 2000 fue una época en la que cada vez más personas venían a vivir a Los Cabos desde diferentes partes de México. Entre ellos formaban comunidades con otras del mismo lugar de origen. Entonces comenzaron los murmullos sobre la falta de cultura en esta región.

Curiously, I met the Tendencia team because of a serie of 6 documentaries titled “Tradiciones en Video”, now winner of awards and nominations. The year 2000 was a time when more and more people were coming to Los Cabos from different parts of Mexico and forming communities with others from the same place of origin. Murmurs began to be heard about the lack of culture in the region.

We interviewed a variety of people from this location and a series of documentaries emerged. We were not limited to a single task. In fact, a diverse number of subjects were developed, including historical monuments, art, gastronomy, the daily life of 1999, and history. Some of the documentaries In my opinion, one of the most knowledgeable people about the history of Sudcalifornia is Prof.

Armando Trasviña Taylor. Thanks to Prof. Faustina Wilkes, I had the opportunity to present the documentaries. I do not think I'll ever see them.

Later, Tendencia contacted me and asked if I would be interested in a meeting. During the meeting, I was invited to write for the publication.

Prof. Trasviña Taylor himself made a complete article about my documentary series. This has been a great source of pride for me. It is one of the best things that has happened to me professionally, because he is a reference for me.

How did you discover Los Cabos? and had recently organized the UN Conference of the Parties to Climate Change in Cancun. After this event, President Felipe Calderón informed me President Calderon assigned me as Secretary Patricia Espinosa, who served as Chancellor, is the person who suggested organizing the summit on the other Mexican peninsula. As a result, Los Cabos was put on the shortlist for the event headquarters. The president sent me the very next day to this beautiful destination. My assignment available. I arrived with my entire team to survey the hotels in both San José and Cabo San Lucas.

That is how I got to know the hospitality leaders in the region.

I returned and said the answer was “yes, they have the hotels.” But the meetings would have to be held in various conference rooms because the Cabo San Lucas Cultural Pavilion was too small for the event. President Calderón’s response was, “You can do it in Los Cabos, but under one condition: you must build a convention center.”

So, I sat down with the entire group of hoteliers, Los Cabos business leaders, the municipal president, and the governor himself. I told them if they would help me build a convention center in six months, the event could take place here. We immediately went on a search until we found a space that was owned by both the federal and municipal governments. that agreed to deliver the project in such a short time frame. ICCA accepted and we moved forward.

Después, me invitan a redactar la anécdota que fue publicada en la edición #16 Mar de Cortés, y desde el año 2013 he compartido muchos textos más.

It was quite curious. It all started with a postcard that I found in an antique store in the pink zone of Mexico City. It featured the Santa Rosalía carnival of 1908. I was invited to write about the subject in an article that was published in the 16th edition, the Sea of Cortés. That was 2013. I have shared many more stories since then.

I eventually agreed to be on the board for personal reasons. I’ve always liked writing. I think that being part of a group with other people who have the same passion is enriching.

Tendencia, in addition to the content, has incredible networking potential. The same contributors to the publication use it as a reference source when making recommendions to clients or family for places they should go, or, an architect to build their house.

It is very practical that the editions are by subject because they can be consulted again and again.

Each edition is updated with interviews or simply with new suppliers located in the destination.

Tendencia is in a constant state of innovation.

Personally, I liked the change from vertical to horizontal and then back to vertical. It presented an entirely new image. And let’s not forget the variety of subjects!

For a certain percentage of the population, readership of printed magazines seems to be declining. Even the classics are now printed according to the number of people who request copies.

UN EDÉN SUDCALIFORNIANO Nada ha contribuido más que los viajes a descorrer el velo de la ignorancia, iluminar la mente humana y ampliar el campo de su visión, estimular nuevos deseos… eliminar obstáculos internacionales, odios y prejuicios, conseguir unas relaciones más intensas entre las diferentes razas del mundo y un mejor entendimiento entre ellas, poniendo al mismo tiempo las bases para la fraternidad universal y, en general, para elevar el nivel de la vida y el pensamiento a sus más altos niveles.

In this little corner of the vermilion sea you can take advantage of the morning to see the sunrise, walk the sand, swim a little in the tranquil waters, watch the leap of the manta rays and listen to the unique sound of their splash, and observe the departure of motorboats and yachts in search of the most popular marine species.

Step onto one beach and your feet magically feel as if they are burning when they come in contact with both the sand and the sea water. That’s because your feet are in a marine hot spring with hot water from thermal springs.

Multiculturalidad en Los Cabos

Although the word "cultivate" refers to the activity from which the fruits of the sown are naturally obtained, it also extends, symbolically, to the development of human intellectual abilities and faculties. This last meaning of culture is not obtained naturally, but through blows of intelligence and will.

Wealth with human and historical value that its laws protect through the individual guarantees and human rights that govern 32 states and Mexico has managed to preserve its history and its origin; and it has planted in its basement the roots of its people, noble, hard-working, hospitable people who have left us, until today, their way of eating, their music, their traditions, artistic, literary, poetic expressions, and all those distinctive features that have shaped it as a country. countries since colonial times, independence, revolution and to date, have added other aspects that enrich it, such as, for example, One of its states with the largest territorial municipalities from south to north; Los Cabos, La Paz, Comondu, Loreto and Mulege.

El crecimiento inmobiliario es un factor importante para Los Cabos, sin embargo, la oferta de entretenimiento cultural y desarrollo social es crucial para el turismo que se espera recibir”.

I believe each area of a project must be left in the hands of professionals. If not, circumstances like the one we are going through now make it clear that you just can't get anywhere.

Renato has lived in Los Cabos for 12 years and in his spare time enjoys cooking, trying new wines and listening to music.

“En Los Cabos la calidad de vida es excepcional, aunque ha crecido el tiempo que se necesita para trasladarse de un lugar a otro. El clima es espectacular casi 99.9% del año. Dentro de mi lista de cosas por hacer está conocer la parte norte de la península. Mis próximos destinos de viaje son Loreto y la Isla Espíritu Santo.

Los Cabos no es un destino muy grande lo que hace fácil tener conocimiento del lugar y relacionarse con personas claves de la industria. Yo creo que por lo mismo hay una fuerte competencia, pero también hay un ambiente de cooperación.

Todos queremos echar el destino para adelante”.

For Renato, it is important to not take the quality of life here for granted and always support the community that has given him so much. He has had the opportunity to preside over various groups and it has been a constant challenge due to the political and public relations component.

“Encuentro inspirador al trabajar en la industria del servicio cuando un huésped sale contento. De igual modo cuando soy parte de un equipo de trabajo en el cual el consenso se logra por cuestión más de voluntad y participación que por ser parte de un organigrama.

La Agricultura

The Agriculture Undoubtedly, geographical characteristics have been a determining part in the historical evolution of this land. From 1860 to 1910, agriculture developed under two forms of production: the traditional one that consisted of small orchards, family work, seasonal crops, whose destiny was self-consumption and the modern one with the counter coast and even the United States of America.

It should be noted that modern agriculture developed rather from 1890. During this period, crops especially sugar cane, grapes and olive trees stood out, while fruits, grains, cotton and vegetables were grown in less volume. Among the crops that supported the manufacturing industry, sugarcane was the star crop of South Peninsular agriculture. As for the areas where the piloncillo was produced, the municipalities of San JosĂŠ del Cabo, Todos Santos and Santiago stand out.

Also, from 1930 the enclave economy developed in the south of the peninsula, linked to the export of tomatoes to the United States of America.

El Comercio

Trade changes in the economic and political terrain. The increase in population, the development of some private activities and the installation of cabotage and height trade, contributed to the insertion of the peninsular region to the rest of the Republic.

In this context, the arrival of families began to practice private activities, which took advantage of the granting of land and concessions for the exploitation of regional resources. This fostered an internal market which they could control by not having large competitors.

During the 19th century, some power groups were formed in the region, especially in the most important towns. At least three ranchers and miners from San Antonio and San JosĂŠ del Cabo; the second group, made up of military personnel from the capital that was Loreto at the time; and thirdly, the nascent group made up of merchants from the port of La Paz. an idea of how far it related when analyzing the maritime routes

It surrounds the rugged coasts of our peninsula with life until it creates a mirrored cove as the port of La Paz. Miguel Leon Portilla called it a “place of settlement of the Aripa who inhabited the interior part of the bay of La Paz.” But before mentioning the port, it is essential to remember the mythical island, with a magical name that was born from legends.

“The history of California dates from many centuries ago. It existed before the 8th century and was already spoken of during the reign of Carlo Magno. In fact, the name California was mentioned in The Song of Roldan the oldest of the songs of romantic deeds and

Cortes dispatched a group of soldiers to explore the new territory by land. The soldiers managed to reach Cabo. Upon

of emerging from the sea, the soldiers immediately connected the vision with the landscapes describing the mythical island California in the popular novel The Adventures of Esplandian.

As a result, the location was given the name of Cabo California.

The soldiers referred to the newly discovered site as "Cabo California Island." Before long, they mentioned it only as "California Island."

Until the map Americae Sive Novi Orbis Nova Descriptio was created by Abraham Ortelius in 1587, the name California appeared to designate a complete "island." Twenty-five years later, it showed up on maps as "Cape California."

It is easy to imagine the expression on the faces of the sailors who approached the Californian shores, contemplating the sharp beauty of their surroundings and the wild contrast of the desert with the sea. Despite the fact that they only wanted to seize the riches that were so highly regarded, the sight in front of them must have surely been overwhelming.

Putting the history of the peninsula into context, over the course of three centuries, California existed as an idealized island discovered by Fortun Jimenez Bertadoña. It was the sent by Cortés in search of wealth came and went.

Once Cortes learned of the failures of the expeditions dispatched with the intention of conquest, he decided to possession of the "island" in the name of the King of Spain.

The site was given the name of Bahía de La Santa Cruz on May 3 and celebrated as a symbol of Christianity.

The act of possession was unsuccessful. In spite of the fact did not prosper. The Spanish remained but a few months in Santa Cruz, which would later prove it was a peninsula.

California proved to be unruly, proud and unique and, at the same time, as noble as a river. It was not under the sword and ambition that would bend the land, the mountains, or the coasts. Altogether, something more was expected.

¿Qué disfrutas más de trabajar en Tendencia?

What I enjoy most about working with Tendencia?

To me, every issue is news. I learn something I didn’t know.

My mind is cluttered with mental checklists of activities, restaurants and places to explore the next time we visit the peninsula.

What does it mean to be part of the Tendencia ecosystem?

When I met the team, I was hooked. Every member was and is a skilled and determined professional who is an integral part of the South California community.

The very idea of the magazine intrigued me. English-speaking markets knew little of the Baja California Peninsula. A publication determined to change the perception that Baja California Sur was more than a sleepy, hot and dusty stretch of land primarily known stop on cruise ship schedules captured my attention and interest.

What I enjoy the most at work. I like everything, although there are things that I don´t necessarily love, like checking the administrative part with Anita. But I also enjoy it because I love numbers.

When I was little, I liked to look at books. When I learned to read, I was even more fascinated. What I do at Tendencia is what I have always dreamed. I do what I'm really passionate about. So, I like everything.

Tendencia cumple 10 años gracias al equipo por el que está conformado y a su líder, que siente miedo, pero eso no la detiene, la hace ser más fuerte.

What does it mean to be part of Tendencia ecosystem?

A lot of responsibility. We deliver information, material and stories that people read. It is a big commitment to provide the right message. In the end, we generate information like a movie, and we want that movie to leave something positive in your life.

But the curious thing is that fear becomes its defense mechanism and allows her to respond quickly Tendencia turns 10 years thanks to the team it is established and its leader, who is afraid, but that does not stop her, it makes her stronger.

Hobby. Read. And investigate and learn what is happening everywhere. I also like being a better person. My favorite hobby is doing just that, looking for the tools to become a better person. For me, reading is one way. I am inspired by biographies, which, in some way, are part of the interviews in Tendencia. I want to hear the behind each human being.

I always hope that people like it. We continue to work, but I never stop being nervous. The adrenaline I feel is an important part of the process because fear does not stop me. I dream and believe, even though I am afraid.

It also means satisfaction. I am happy with everything the team has accomplished. They are practically my family and I am proud. Yes, we are a family. Which is an ecosystem.

The times we live in are unprecedented and we don’t know what the future holds. It is up to us to do what we can to create a stronger, more united, more conscious society.

If you are looking to get involved in creating this type of society, you are capable of doing it.

The Baja California Sur Community Alliance did it! With only three months of operation, it has found a way to help Baja California Sur with food and medical supplies.

We spoke with Korey Riggs, who is the Executive the project. He explained the dynamics of the Alliance, what is happening in the community, and most importantly, how we can help.

Korey said the Baja California Sur Community Alliance in coordination with the government. Riggs mentioned that it is important to note that the Alliance is a private any political party. The Alliance works alongside the

“Es inspiracional ver cómo Los Cabos, La Paz y el Estado se han unido para impulsar la iniciativa. Así como las organizaciones civiles y las empresas, también hay cientos de voluntarios que trabajan todos los días para entregar despensas a aquellos que lo necesitan” dijo Korey.

"It is inspirational to see how Los Cabos, La Paz and the entire state have come together to support this and businesses involved in the Alliance, there are hundreds of dedicated volunteers working daily to deliver food packages to people in need!" said Korey.

The founding members of the BCS Community Alliance are Los Cabos Paz, International Community Foundation, Cancer Registry of Baja California Sur, Chileno Bay/El Dorado Foundation, Alumbra Foundation, the Food Security Alliance and the Los Cabos Community Alliance.

3. Dona en el sitio web: ¡cualquier cantidad de dinero ayuda! Recibirás un comprobante de pago de Estados Unidos, Canadá o México.

Al finalizar nuestra llamada, Korey hizo hincapié sobre el mensaje que quiere que escuches: “realmente podemos resolver esto. El reto es muy grande, pero la respuesta de la comunidad ha sido de igual tamaño”.

El objetivo, dice Riggs, es que esta Alianza responda ante cualquier crisis y esté lista para enfrentarse a emergencias en un futuro. Cuando preguntamos si eso significa algún desastre natural como un huracán o algo peor, Riggs contesta: “lo que sea que venga, estaremos listos”.

Hasta el último reporte, julio 10 de 2020, Alianza Comunitaria BCS ha recabado $101,941,173 pesos. La meta es llegar a $168,000,000 pesos.

At the end of our call, Korey emphasized an important message: "We can solve this. The challenge is huge, but the response from the community has been of equal proportion.”

The goal, says Riggs, is for the Alliance to be able to continue to respond to this crisis and be ready to respond to future emergency situations. When asked if that means a natural disaster like a hurricane or something worse, Riggs answered: "Whatever comes, we'll be ready."

So far, since July 10, 2020, the Alliance has raised $4,633,690 USD. The goal is to reach $7,500,000 USD.
