The child has a condition which needed a Penetrating Keratoplasty (PK) because the child was blind practimamente. His father, a month produces about RD $ 5,000 to approximately U.S. $ 121, which is not enough to support a family on minimum conditions, but in spite of his poverty kept a very positive attitude.

 

Details of the cause

After finding a construction of bamboo and tin roof full of holes that housed 24 students from different courses and one teacher decided to find the funds to realize our dream. Galimberti Giacomo headed to our fellow citizens in Switzerland formed an association called www.villaltagracia.ch raising funds from many people interested in helping us fulfill this dream. With great surprise we received funds from different people including people who never visited the DR and most do not even know where is the community of Villa Altagracia Blade Dairy and place that is the school's Juliana. It also received support from the community and around two years completed a 3-classroom school roof specifically to serve as a refuge for the community in case of disasters.
