Every year, from September through November, Fundación Tropicalia works with Junior Achievement Dominicana (JADOM) to bring financial literacy courses to high school students in Miches. In December, Fundación Tropicalia and JADOM graduated 200 students from the program from the high schools, La Gina and Padre Daniel. This program also supported the financial education component of the IDB / MIF project. During graduation, JADOM President of the Board, Salvador Demaillestre, and Executive Director César Asiático, joined us in Miches as keynote speakers, spreading inspiration and encouragement to our grads. In Addition to JADOM, 75 students from the La Mina elementary school also participated in Fundación Tropicalia’s arts & crafts program.
