La Casa Rosada/ The Pink House is an orphanage run by Nuns for children with AIDS. They have about 60 children ranging in age from a few months old to early teens. The Catholic Nuns work to feed, clothe, teach, and provide medical care to these precious gifts from God. They are always in need of donations, especially food and AIDS drugs. It is a pleasure to visit these children and their caretakers as they are so friendly and love to show you around the place.
Contact: (809) 388-2250 email: lacasarosada2001@yahoo.com. They used to have a web site but I have not been able to find it. It comes on line and goes off line.
Directions: Av. Prol. Venezuela and Calle Isabel Aguiar "Loly" ,Los Tres Brazos, Santo Domingo East

The Olivia Peguero Foundation
"The Foundation is a private charity (we will be changing our foundation status from a privately funded foundation to a public charity the middle of this year 2013) created with the sole purpose of enhancing literacy and math skills for young children in rural areas throughout the world. To accomplish our goals and allow children a better chance of success in our global economy, a multifaceted approach has been developed and is continually being enhanced at the foundation. First, we work with rural teachers and families to help develop curriculums that can be taught to children where materials and books are sometimes nonexistent. Next, when possible we supply schools with the base training material and the skills needed to apply that instruction. Finally and most importantly, we follow up with the school administration; teachers and student families to ensure the children are getting the education set forth in the program and are on track to accomplish their goals. This cyclical, progressive and project based approach to our work can and does give those children that desperately need help a chance for a better life through education and the arts."
