In 1960 Alfred & Ray Lawrence started helping the children of Acapulco Mexico. With their personal financial help, and with generous donations from "Friends of Acapulco" and other donors they bought an old hotel property in the Mozimba area of Acapulco and helped to create and support The Salvation Army Acapulco Children's Home. The home opened at it's current location in 1963 and that tradition of help has continued for more than 57 years.

Ahora hemos formalizado ese proyecto y hemos creado Acapulco Angels, una organización sin fines de lucro US 501 (c) 3 para promover nuestra misión de "ayudar a los niños necesitados y desfavorecidos en Acapulco y sus alrededores, México".
