My journey began in the vibrant town of Moca, Dominican Republic, where I spent my early years. When I arrived in the United States, I navigated the language challenges with resilience, fueled by the values instilled by my parents. 

My upbringing and experiences inspired me to contribute to the land of my birth specifically, Moca, and Salcedo. What started as a one time project  blossomed into Proyecto Las 3 Mariposas, a grassroots effort named in honor of the Mirabal sisters, symbols of strength and resistance in Dominican history. 

Proyecto Las 3 Mariposas in an annual commitment to improve the lives of children in the communities of Moca and Salcedo. Our mission is to uplift youth, especially girls, through education, resources, and community development empowering them to realize their full potential and contribute to a more equitable future.

The 2025 initiative in the Dominican Republic will revolve around supporting three organizations.

Divino Niño, an orphanage with 12 teen girls in Salcedo - Here we plan to offer the girls:

• The opportunity to be inspired and empowered by sharing the success stories of accomplished Dominican women from various fields. Through storytelling these women will share their journeys, struggles, and triumphs, demonstrating the power of education, resilience, and staying true to oneself. The goal is to encourage the girls to stay in school, pursue their personal and professional goals, and embrace their authentic selves as they navigate their futures.
• For the storytelling, we will supply each child with journals, writing utensils, light bites, and refreshments along with some other surprises.
• We plan to supply the orphanage with much needed items such as food, hygiene products, and reading books to support the everyday lives of the girls.

Casa Hogar Virgen de Lourdes, an orphanage with 14 children of various ages in Salcedo - Here, we plan to offer the children:

• A live reading of the book Martina y la Odontopediatra written and read by its author Dra. Katherine Lara, a Dominican Pedriatric Dentist.
• Dra. Katherine will teach the children the importance of brushing their teeth, keeping their mouth healthy, and why going to the dentist is so important.
• We will be gifting students dental hygiene kits to promote dental health.
• We will be partnering with a pediatric dentist to provide cleanings for all of the children.
• We plan to supply the orphanage with much needed items such as food, hygiene products, and reading books to support the everyday lives of the children.

Escuela Gil Rafael Osiris Beato Florentin, an elementary school in Moca with over 100 students - Here we plan to offer the school:

• School supplies (pencils, crayons, paper, notebooks, folders, etc.)
• Teacher Supplies (Post Its, Agendas, tape, staples, pens, etc.)
• Essential Groceries for each family in the school (Rice, beans, milk, cooking oil etc.)
