FOUNDATION TO HELP CHILDREN IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
Our purpose is to provide a safe environment for children who live in extreme poverty and usually receive just one meal a day, as well as provide education and Christian teaching.
Project 1
Municipio Consuelo, Calle Las Mellizas #8, Barrio Invi
Project Overview
This project, supervised by Ruth Romero, in the town of Consuelo, will serve approximately 40 children. Along with Ruth, there will also be wellness service provided by a child psychologist, Gresiy Esther, MD. Pastoral care will be led by Alfonso Dominique and culinary services will be led by Ana Del Carmen.
The project consists of classes such as Bible (spiritual formation), arts and crafts (labor formation), English and music (personal growth & enrichment).
The structure will be in the formation of two groups: Group One, (ages 9-13) & Group Two, (ages 14-18).
The groups will meet on Mondays and Thursdays from 5pm-8pm.
Project Description
The purpose is to spread the Gospel among the children in hopes that they will accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior, while simultaneously instructing and preparing them to become men and women with necessary labor skills, so that they can expand the possibilities of economic opportunity as they live according to the Word of God as true disciples of Christ.
Our vision is to help children become productive young adults empowered and capable to contribute to society, both secularly and spiritually.
Our mission is to rescue the children regardless of whatever situation they may be in and provide them with the genuine love and peace that only Jesus can give.
