The
Foundation for Peace (FFP) is concentrating on building foundations,
sharing hope and working for peace. These foundations not only support
schools, water purification facilities, churches and medical clinics,
but are also a key part of the long-term friendships formed between the
North American volunteers and the Dominican, Haitian and Kenyan people.
Our working together hand in hand through the building of latrines, providing medical care, clean water, food, clothing and education has brought hope. Our world is in desperate need of peace. While working with government, church, business and non-governmental entities, we have stood for all people, especially those who have been ignored by society. Thank you to all who have contributed to the work of the FFP in person, via donations, and through prayer. Your efforts have been a blessing to thousands! You can read about these endeavors on this website. We hope that you will consider joining us on a coming trip, not only to provide hope and improve the lives of those in need, but to grow personally in love, faith and understanding.
The FOUNDATION FOR PEACE is a 501(c)(3) not-for profit organization dedicated to working hand in hand with people in materially impoverished areas of the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Kenya. Our goals are to provide educational support, healthcare access, economic opportunity and hope, to enable personal success and community achievement. It is our belief that working together as long-term partners in solidarity will result in sustainable and successful initiatives that relieve the effects of poverty, encourage personal growth, and overcome injustice. The founders of the Foundation for Peace began serving together in the Dominican Republic more than 12 years ago. Their teamwork is an outgrowth of the ministry initiated by Drs. Alberto and Rosalina Martinez in the Dominican Republic more than 40 years ago.
The
Foundation works in partnership with local community groups, government
agencies and religious organizations on a variety of projects.
Together, we are pursuing the sustainable provision of education, clean
water, health care, and economic opportunities for those in some of the
poorest areas in the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Kenya.
"Peace is not merely the absence of war but also a state of harmony between people and groups across the socioeconomic, political and religious spectrum"
