Welcome to the Sosúa Kids website! Please look around the site and think about how you can help us to improve the educational opportunities of poor children in The Dominican Republic.

SOSÚA KIDS helps poor children from the Sosúa area of the North Coast of the Dominican Republic to attend school in order to achieve their needs and aspirations and to help in the development of this beautiful and friendly country.

Children in the Dominican Republic are entitled to attend school at no cost, but they must have full school uniforms, backpacks and school materials.

Our primary purpose is to provide school uniforms for children who otherwise could not afford them or go to school. In addition, we help to support individual schools which do not receive government funding and we provide financial support to a small number of children who are continuing their education in university.

From small beginnings in the year 2000 (see our Background page) we have now developed to the stage where in the year 2011/2012 we are supporting more than 440 pupils, including 2 at university.

SOSUA KIDS promises each child that it takes on that it will support them until they complete their education.

If you can, please help us to keep the needs and dreams of these children alive.

The rotating pictures displayed on this and some other pages are taken from an album of photos illustrating life in the local villages/townships where many of our children live.  Click here to see the full album.  Click here to see the other albums which are available in the Gallery section of this web site.
