Maki’s Story

This was my second time participating in the Pack for a Purpose initiative. This time my family and I visited Dominican Republic. Along with the help of another organization called “Not Just Tourists,” I was able to bring three big suitcases. Two of them had a lot of different medical supplies and one suitcase had school items and hygiene products! Due to pandemic, I was not able to visit the facility however, Margarita Pilier, the Puntacana Foundation’s coordinator for community projects came to my hotel to receive the suitcases. She was very appreciative and I can tell this means a lot to the community! My family and I cannot wait to participate again!
