Dear donor, please receive a warm greeting.
On behalf of the beneficiaries, we want to thank you for helping us make a positive difference. Your support encourages our continued commitment to reaching our goal of improving the life conditions of a team of women who live in some deprived communities of the Punta Cana region.
Thanks to your generosity and social awareness this project is able to empower women in vulnerable situations, through stimulation of their self-esteem and potential for achievement.
The project continues to promote the empowerment of these women; to strengthen their capabilities, confidence, vision and leadership as a social group in order to continue promoting positive changes in their lives.
Empowerment has fundamentally a collective and an individual dimension. The individual dimension involves a process by which the excluded raise their levels of confidence, self-esteem and ability to respond to their own needs. The project continues to focus on the latter.
One of the pillars of the project is the improvement of capacities, providing the artisans with the necessary skills to continue successfully inserting themselves in the micro-business world and at the same time promoting their personal growth and the achievement of their goals.
As a Foundation, we continue supporting the artisans by making it possible to sell their handicrafts at the stores of the Fundación Grupo Puntacana, Puntacana Resort and Club and some stores at the Punta Cana International Airport, as part of the marketing strategies.
In the last month the project has been focused on providing the logistical support for their participation in events, branding, promotional materials, design and production of new handcrafted pieces. In the last months they participated twice in the Farmer’s Market at Grupo Puntacana Foundation by setting up an exhibition stand

We look forward to a continuing partnership with you.
We will keep you informed about the progress of the project. If you have any comment, advice or question, please feel free to direct them to us and we will answer as best we can.
There is no way to fully express our gratitude for your support.
Thank you again
Best wishes,
