CBOQ Youth has gathered teams from across multiple churches in this impact experience since 2001. Our purpose is to provide an entry-level opportunity for youth and their leaders to experience what God continues to do in other areas of the world including the Dominican Republic. Our desire is to be a blessing to those impacted by the Lighthouse Project, to witness God's transformative work there and to grow closer in our walks with Jesus.
As a supporter, your prayer and financial support expands the legacy and impact of the Lighthouse Project in those 2 local communities (Los Alcarrizos and Villa Altagracia), marks this as a milestone in each team member's faith sojourn and deepens our collective identity as the body of Christ reaching to all parts of this world.
The community of Los Alcarrizos in Dominican Republic has a growing population of more than 320,000 people, most of whom live in poor conditions with little infrastructure. Thousands of children receive no education because of extremely limited space in the public schools. To address this, Impact Dominican Republic supports the Lighthouse School, constructing a primary and secondary school, as well as a vocational training centre. Currently, Lighthouse Project is working hard in Villa Altagracia, and have built a basketball court, sports fields and a water plant. Next up, they are working on building a vocational school to address the community's high unemployment rate.
