InspireDR | Cabarete, Dominican Republic (DR)
Educating, Mentoring, and Inspiring Boys with Life-Changing After-School Programs
Our Work
InspireDR’s impact on the Cabarete community is clear. I've watched the boys grow since the start. Some have even worked with us. What most impresses me is their polite manners and dedication to learn new skills. The boys seem so proud to be part of Inspire.

Boys at Risk.
Futures at Stake.
41% of boys in the DR drop out of school, drastically increasing their risk of substance abuse and lost opportunities. Together, we can change this.
We set out to educate, mentor, and inspire underserved boys—our mission is to help them grow into productive, responsible young men who make a difference in their community.

Soy una madre encantada de que mi hijo participe en InspireDR. Aqui le están enseñando a formarse como uno de los muchos jóvenes del programa.
Sé que va a marcar la diferencia en la sociedad. Se está desarrollando en la computadora, los deportes, la natación, la educación y el aprendizaje de hablar en público.
Solo me queda decir gracias a todos los que hacen posible este programa.
