Our Sponsorship program is what enables the Makarios School in the Dominican Republic to maintain its presence each year. We have 80 kids each year needing sponsorship and that number continues to increase with each year we grow. Through our Sponsorship Program, our school is able to provide a quality education to impoverished children.
