Description
Nobody knows better what sells in a small under-resourced community than the people within the community ! Every bario, every street has its niche market. A colmado is essentially a small convenient store run out of the house. We’ve had the privilege of helping several women at Vida Plena start and manage their own colmado business.
A donation to this project would provide a Vida Plena micro-lease to be spent on equipment like a freezer or refrigerated in addition to the initial inventory of goods to sell to neighbors. Purchase a colmado kit for a friend or family member and we will send a card to them letting them know of the gift that was given in their name.
This donation will be loaned to a qualified recipient and reinvested into the community through Vida Plena’s micro-loan and micro-lease program.
Consider giving an impact gift in the name of a friend or family member and we’ll send them a note letting them know the impact they’re making in the Dominican Republic.
