William is a young pensioner who came on a vacation volunteer project at SuncampDR in December 2010. William is a builder and an active man. He went back to Canada and his heart remains here because he is making some funding actions to come back and help better the community. While in Puerto Plata, William participated in some activities at the Community Center and his favorite pastime was walking in the Munoz village. Here is how William described the volunteer vacation in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic:
This is the opportunity of a lifetime you've been waiting for: a volunteer vacation in the tropics, in the Caribbean. This is your opportunity to visit the best of both worlds of the tropics; the tourist world as well as those living in the background... You have a vacation in all security but away from the touristic sites.
Help the less fortunate, and contribute to the most deserved causes which will not only leave you with a satisfaction of accomplishment, but with a different view of the local people. You will get a taste of the typical life and enjoy a less expensive vacation than at the hotel or all inclusive resort.
During your vacation in Puerto Plata, you will be given the opportunity to help the most vulnerable, in any way you can, whether by a few words of English, French, Arts and Crafts; basically help normal children do normal things that we take so much for granted for here in Canada. Don’t forget that you can still do all excursions and sightseeing tours that are offered in the Dominican Republic.
You will go back with an unprecedented satisfaction and most probable a better physical health like many people have experiences in this island where the weather is the most suitable for the human being.
Many people go back year after year to see the evolution of these beautiful children.
Small trickets for the children are most appreciated.
