Beyond The Beach Helps Us Again

Beyond the Beach, the international charitable foundation based in Canada, has supported Sosua Kids again with a generous donation of $1,500 plus some school supplies.  This was presented to our President, Janet Williams, by Olive Thompson, President of Beyond The Beach who was visiting Sosua, on Tuesday 1 February 2011.  It follows similarly generous support given to us by the foundation in previous years.  We are of course extremely grateful for this continuing support for our work.

The stated mission of Beyond The Beach is to "encourage travellers to make their journeys more than just vacations; to reach beyond the beach and assist us in equipping the children of the Dominican Republic with the tools necessary for learning and living, dreaming and achieving; to empower the children to free themselves from the restraints of poverty & lack of opportunity, and decide their own futures".  We at Sosua Kids are proud that our work is valued as contributing to this inspiring mission.
