Who We Serve
For many young Dominicans and Haitians, the cost of education is simply too high. This means that countless promising students are unable to pursue their dreams of a college education, while others are unable to afford vocational training that would prepare them for the workforce. It's a difficult situation that affects thousands of students each year.

Join us in our mission to create a better world through education.
Many students in the Dominican Republic and Haiti face significant challenges when it comes to completing their education due to widespread poverty. Shockingly, around 40% of Dominican students leave school before the 8th grade, while in Haiti, almost 80% of the population lives on less than $2 a day, it impossible for most to afford university or private school fees. This highlights the urgent need for support and resources to help these students overcome these obstacles and achieve their educational goals.
