Park Care Center Site Partnership
You can partner with Park Care Center to change children’s lives!
Home to more than 10 million people, Dominican Republic is one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere. In United Nations-sponsored studies, the Dominican Republic routinely ranks last in Latin American education. More than a quarter of children do not complete primary school, just over half go on to secondary school, and fewer than 20% graduate from high school, so the possibility of a better future is remote for many.
On the north coast, Park Care Center serves both Dominican and Haitian children from local impoverished communities. Kids Alive started the program in 2005 and has continued to expand facilities and services, with a focus on spiritual growth and basic education. Each child is taught reading, math, and Bible knowledge, as well as receiving a nutritious daily lunch, which is often the only food they will eat that day.
Last year, we received permission from the Dominican government to become an official school. We enrolled approximately 120 children in our first year and anticipate we will be able to grow to serve 200 children per day in the next several years. We also anticipate opening a vocational training space for high school age youth in the summer or fall of 2018.
