Project Launch:

With a $500 grant from World Connect’s Kids to Kids Program in 2010, the youth of Los Arroces, Dominican Republic, painted a mural in the main school of elementary, middle, and high school students to beautify the school and raise awareness about the Escojo Mi Vida initiative. The Escojo Mi Vida promotes youth making healthy decisions with their lives. The group painted a mural on the school, made t-shirts, and increased interest in the school’s Escojo Mi Vida program.
