Dear Donor, please receive a warm greeting. We are writing to express our deepest thanks for your donation, contributions from donors like you provide the financial and moral support needed to accomplish our mission of improving the life conditions of a team of women who live in some deprived communities of the Punta Cana region.

Our handcraft project undoubtedly continues to contribute to reducing levels of marginality as it promotes the socioeconomic development of the artisans, their families and their communities. The search for economic benefit goes hand in hand with caring for the environment, through the reduction of pollution caused by uncontrollably discarded plastic covers.

As a Foundation, we continue supporting the artisans by making it possible to sell their handicrafts at the stores of the Fundación Grupo Puntacana, Puntacana Resort and Club and some stores at the Punta Cana International Airport, as part of the marketing strategies.
The artisans are increasingly participating as exhibitors in activities that help them promote their products and boost sales. Fortunately the sales ofr the handicrafts (bags, souvenirs, accessories) continue increasing due to the recovery of the local tourism industry.
In the last month the project has been focused on providing the logistical support for their participation in bazaars, fairs and various events. In the last months they participated by setting up an exhibition stand in:

Thank you again
Best wishes,
