Dominican Republic Project
A gripping story of love and redemption, our journey in “DR” illustrates the comprehensive restorative efforts of Trash Mountain Project amidst the trash dump community of Santiago, Dominican Republic. Through the work of countless volunteer missionaries, medical teams and financial contributors from Kansas to Florida, God has equipped Trash Mountain Project to bring about radical change for the students, staff, and community surrounding Kids With a Hope Ministries.
Beginning with just a simple call to help a pastor in need, Trash Mountain Santiago has grown into a multi-phase construction and community development plan designed to share Christ’s restorative and sacrificial love with those otherwise forgotten by society. Including the development of: permanent medical and dental clinics, expanded kitchen and school facilities, a nutrition and daily feeding program, technical skills training, horticulture and aquaculture development, and an increased emphasis on Bible education, the “Hope Project” will meet fundamental needs and provide for sustainable educational advancements in an effort to break the cycle of poverty surrounding the garbage dump. Trash Mountain Project is honored to take part in God’s provision for the amazing children of the Santiago city dump.
