Fundación Tropicalia, under the scope of PRyME (School Renovation and Maintenance Program) ended the year by helping La Culebra educational center undergo a physical transformation. Members from El Cedro, La Gina, La Mina and El Guaco communities, along with representatives of Fundación Tropicalia, came together to renovate the school’s building and its surrounding areas. The project took place over an 8 week period where community members renovated classrooms, bathrooms, plumbing systems, gardens and exterior paint. The school’s restoration benefited 130 children and 4 teachers.

Gallagher: Teaching girls their value
I’m a big fan of giving back and making a difference, especially when it is for children in need. I also believe that making a difference has no boundaries. So sit back and let me take you on a trip to the Dominican Republic. That’s right — the D.R., a place where many residents of our valley head to hit the beach, windsurf, kite surf and let the good times roll.
