Newcomers Club of Mexico City was formed to welcome and help our members and
their families acclimate to life into the Mexico City community. The Club also
promotes Mexican culture and supports a number of charities. We host monthly
General meetings, social events, member support groups, interest groups and children's
activities.
WHO CAN JOIN?
Newcomers Club welcomes everybody! We accept corporate and associate
memberships. Our membership is comprised of recent arrivals as well as people
who have lived here 3, 5, 10 and even 15 years!

incorporated businesses or recognized government agencies with an office presence

and non-profit organizations. The cost of corporate membership is $1,000 pesos

OUR OFFICE
Newcomers maintains an office at the Union Church in Lomas de Chapultepec. This
office is staffed by volunteers Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9am to
12.30pm. Office volunteers can provide information on everything the Club
has to offer as well as take new membership applications
and advertising requests for our newsletter and web site. If you are in Mexico
on a "look see visit" before moving down, we strongly urge you to stop by the office
and consider joining us. As a member you will have resources available to you
before your move that will help make the move smoother.
OUR MONTHLY MEETINGS
On the 2nd Friday of every month (unless otherwise noted), the Newcomers Club
hosts its monthly General Meeting focusing on the needs and/or interests of our
membership. Topics have included: community services, home & safety, an art fair,
mini-workshops, a book sale, travel & adventure, health & beauty and our semi-annual
artesania shopping bazaar. Guest speakers often highlight the themes with a short
talk and/or presentation. In addition, our meetings provide an opportunity for
members to access the resources offered by the Club and to sign up for activities,
tours and events that interest them.
