Community Challenge Fund

“Helping communities help themselves”     

The Community Challenge Fund is a program to help the poorest communities of the Dominican Republic with their basic needs. The Fund provides grants for community-based projects such as water, electricity, educational facilities, sanitation and health.  Grants of up to $2,000 for materials are used to support the contributed labor of community members for needed improvements. On-site Peace Corps Volunteers help plan, coordinate and monitor projects.  Your support will help build and sustain this Fund.
