About the Cause

Posted by Centro de Desarrollo Integral Getsemani in Dominican Republic on 10/29/2024

In our community we need a court, and we do not have the resources to build one Our project is aimed at overcoming the needs, to provide well-being and comfort to children, youth and adolescents and the community in general. So that they grow with a healthy mind and with values based on biblical principles, in addition, in the place of our project there is no other court or anything similar. History We have several testimonies of transcendental changes in our center and community. A key example is Ángel, who was very emotionally unstable due to the death of his father when he was only 4 years old. This fact caused him great problems of inappropriate behavior everywhere, which did not allow him to relate properly with others, from school to home. Once inside the Getsemaní sports club, of the center, his attitude changed as he became involved and participated in the tournaments. His mother testifies of the change in behavior and the impact the child has had through the center and the sports club and by teaching the word of God.
