Dominican Republic: “Café con Leche” school promotes an overall development of childern

“Café con leche” (coffe with milk) school, is settled in one of the poorer areas of Santo Domingo. In 1990, Marisol Jimenez was a young student in pedagogy.
After two summers of volunteering for nearly 700 children of the El café Barrio, Marisol understood her mission: to teach on a regular basis and establish a permanent school.
Today, the school has over 500 students who attend morning and afternoon classes.
