Support
Many families in the Dominican Republic struggle with hunger every day. While visitor donations help, a more reliable solution is needed. Our Permanent Food Fund provides consistent support, but we can’t do it without you!
Our dream is to ensure no family goes hungry. The Permanent Food Fund provides reliable food support year-round, with a goal of raising $5,000 annually. Each food pack costs $20. Your support will help feed many families in need.

Youth Upliftment School Lunch Program
The Youth Upliftment School provides education to underprivileged children in the Dominican Republic. A vital part of that mission is the Lunch Program, offering fresh, local, and nutritious meals to students—sometimes the only meal they receive each day. Your donation can make a real difference: $50 buys a 50-pound bag of rice—enough to feed many children.

Your food donations also help provide a Christmas Dinner for Dominican Starfish construction workers, local seniors and families in need. Every act of kindness brings hope where it's needed most.
