Being a sponsor for a child or the PuentesDR family is an amazing opportunity, but to actually meet the child you sponsor is priceless! Making a "Mission Trip Donation" gives sponsors the opportunity to go and spend time building relationships with those they sponsor and to see first hand the difference their sponsorship makes. These trips happen once a year and are open to current sponsors or anyone who would like to learn more about the ways PuentesDR is working to break the cycle of poverty in the Dominican Republic. PuentesDR also provides opportunities for churches to send teams to serve in Dominican Republic communities in a variety of ways, including building and remodeling houses, leading Vacation Bible School, visiting sponsored children, meet your sponsored child, and witness the love of Christ by building relationships. If you are a sponsor or would like to help someone take a trip, know that your donation will be a treasured gift!
