With the help of friends, family, and church community, we were able to support the needs of Dominican families just in time for Christmas.

Fausto, and his wife Maricela were able to deliver much needed food hampers including poultry/fish to many families in La Cienaga. A call out to Hand in Hands supporters helped us to reach our goal.

Hand in Hands continues to have a pulse on whats happening in the communities we support, along with our in-country partners hard at work. Weekly communications to the field in the Dominican and regular updates between Canada and Costa Rica help us ensure we keep abreast of the situations on the ground.

In mid February, we will send hampers again to the families/community we support. It’s been a privilege, and a blessing for Hand in Hands, and our supports to be involved in bridging the gap for community access to adequate nutrition. Especially as populations in the Dominican Republic were also seeing a rise in the Omicron variant of Covid 19. Proper nutrition and access to adequate food may be the difference between living and dying .
