Communities: Batey Palmarejo, Campo Verde, El Carrizal, & Los Tocones

Batey Palmarejo – B3 worked with MUDHA (Movimento de Mujeres Dominico Haitiana) to build 3 classrooms for Escuela Anaïsa. The school is designed to be part of a larger and comprehensive education program to work with the community and develop programs linked to health, nutrition, environmental education, and gender equity issues.

Campo Verde –  B3 worked with Bellrminio and the Compo Verde Committee to build an Agricultural Community Center that will be used for storage; the production of items like cream, milk, cheese, and chocolate; and the preparation of crops/goods to go to market with the goal of increasing the profitability of farming and creating a more stable economy.
