The Elliot Foundation, part of the Sun Village Resorts holding company, has entered into partnership with CitiHope International to donate US$300,000 worth of medical supplies to poor families in the Puerto Plata area. Sun Village Resorts is a Canadian founded company with operations at Cofresi Beach, Puerto Plata and will soon be opening a resort at Juan Dolio Beach.<\/p>\n
“We are blessed and honored with the opportunity to support CitiHope’s mission assisting people in need in the Dominican Republic,” said Derek Elliott, co-founder of the Elliott Foundation and president and CEO of Elliott. “Since the opening of our first Dominican Republic resort Sun Village Resort & Spa Cofresi, we have become very involved in the local Puerto Plata community. Funding a CitiHope mission helps us make lives healthier and more comfortable in an impoverished community that, despite a recent explosion in tourism, still needs so much.”<\/p>\n
The materials are being airlifted in March. CitiHope International and The Elliott Foundation will then distribute the materials to local medical institutions and physicians.<\/p>\n
