About the Cause

Centro de Desarrollo Integral IAN M RATHIE

Posted by Centro de Desarrollo Integral IAN M RATHIE in Dominican Republic on 09/16/2025

This initiative seeks to improve a family's financial stability by strengthening a barbershop that is already operating, but is precariously. The barber, who suffered a spinal injury, is unable to perform demanding physical labor and decided to start this business as a sustainable alternative. The barbershop has a rented space and a trained barber, but lacks the proper equipment to offer professional service. A barber chair, an power generator with batteries, furniture for waiting areas, a barber's cabinet, and a display case for product sales are needed. This improvement will allow the barber to generate a steady income, improve his quality of life, and contribute to the well-being of his family.

How the church will sustain the Cause

The barbershop will be self-sustaining once equipped, as the barber will be able to generate enough income to cover operating and maintenance costs. The church will provide support and follow-up to ensure its continuity.
