What to Expect
Take a Trip Change a Life Service Program:
Monción Community
Dominican Republic thrives on tourism. Unfortunately, many rural communities away from the coast are not able to capitalize on this commodity. Monción is one of these communities with the majority of families living in tin structures with dirt floors, lacking proper plumbing and educated in a crowded one room school that accommodates toddlers to teens.
The Take a Trip Change a Life Service Program in the Dominican Republic continues to make improvements in Monción while working alongside members of this community in need. Volunteer, study, learn, and create sustainable change!
