Building & Teaching in the Dominican



The Dominican Service Project group left on Monday, March 3, at 2:30 AM and arrived in the Dominican Republic. This morning, Ms. MacMeekin sent an update about the group:

Yesterday's travel went as smoothly as it possibly could have and we arrive in Puerto Plata 45 min early!  Last night was spent getting to know each other, settling in and getting acclimated to our new surroundings.  This morning we began working with the Mariposa Foundation and are working on several projects including: building a stand that will be used to sell smoothies and fresh fruit, teaching piano and English to some of the girls, and taking inventory of the incredible amount of donations they have received. 

Below is a picture of students in the group building a wall for the stands to help the Mariposa Foundation:
