Extended Reach

Through our network of committed collaborators

Santiago

Santiago, República Dominicana

Through our network of committed collaborators in Santiago, we have been able to send help, food, and support to families in need in this province.

Mao

Mao, Valverde, República Dominicana

Thanks to local volunteers in Mao, we have been able to extend our help to families in this area of Valverde.

Thanks to local collaborators in Santiago, Mao, and other areas of the Dominican Republic, we have been able to extend our help beyond Montecristi. Each collaborator is a fundamental part of our mission.

Why These Communities

These communities were not chosen at random. They are our roots, our home, our family.

Johanna grew up in Agua de La Palma. Juan grew up in Los Derramaderos.

These are the communities that saw us grow, that shaped us, that taught us the value of work and solidarity.

Today, we return that love multiplied.
