Amen,Amen, Amen. Dozens of young people (from the states) all with backpacks on. They pay to pray. Stay at some nice hotels. They have breakfast and hit the road.

Or did you mean "do Dominicans volunteer"?

Are you a looking for a short term volunteer opportunity or a longer term (3 months or more)? Are you hoping to be near the beach or are you looking for a cultural experience? What skills do you bring to the table? We love volunteers but always want to be sure that we meet the volunteer’s Expectations and they meet our needs.

There are many groups who come in and work hard for no money and do not stay in nice hotels. This is one of them. http://www.steelcitymissiongroup.org They raise their own money, stay at modest locations and spend their hard earned vacation time helping extremely poor people. They are a great group of nurses and other professions from the Pittsburgh area in Pennsylvania. Look them up.

Paying to pray is volunteering? Volunteering to so what is the obvious question.

What do you do? Can you lay blocks for poor housing? Can you teach English? Can you pick up trash? We have several programs here at SuncampDR! Mostly in the Haitian community. Look up our website.

Thank you! Strength for the Journey teaches classes in the small mountain campos and in our learning center in Jamao al Norte. I appreciate your offer, but our work takes place during the week, not on weekends.
