The Dominican Republic is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. It is also a country where water supply, deforestation, and soil erosion are posing a great threat to the country. The coral reefs surrounding the island are also in harm's way, decreasing the fish that the people of the coastal regions need to survive. 30% of the population is unemployed and more than 20% of the workforce is underemployed. The poor water quality throughout the island is responsible for many health problems and increasing infectious disease. More than 2 million Haitian immigrants, most of them undocumented, live in the Dominican Republic working in high labor, low wage, unskilled jobs and receiving no services from the government. This is why International Medical Relief has been invited to provide care for the people of the Dominican Republic who can't access care. ·
ABOUT CLINIC
IMR will be traveling to villages surrounding the province to provide patients with much needed health care services, dental care, and education and medications. We will care for families, the elderly, refugee workers, and more. All community members are invited to attend and even those who are there for the training and education on health topics will come with their families for guidance in how to stay healthy and care for their children. This area lacks clean water and we anticipate treating a lot of diseases as a result of this. Various skin infections, respiratory infections, fungal infections and infectious diseases are all common to the area.
TRANSPORTATION & LODGING
The team will be staying in modest, dormatory-like housing that is safe and clean. You will fly into Santo Domingo and meet your transportation to our base camp. If you fly on the group ticket, all transportation will be arranged; if you are taking advantage of the amazing opportunity to extend your stay for the golf, beaches, or mountains by flying independently (and we hope you do!), we'll help you arrange your transportation as required or add you to the group transportation for a small fee.
TRIP HIGHLIGHTS
While the highlight of this trip will be with the patients that you care for, the team will also have the opportunity to participate in the local culture in town some evenings. You'll have some time to make new friends in the village where you are based, practice your Spanish, and maybe even learn some village dances or games! Don't forget your baseball glove, cleats, and favorite bat (just kidding about the bat!) - baseball is more than a national past time; it is the passion of the Dominican Republic and the heart of the community. Let's play ball!!
EXTEND YOUR STAY
Join IMR on an exclusive extension of nearby Dominican Republic! Spend five perfect days in the unexpected tropical paradise of the Dominican Republic, a country known for its warm people, lush mountain scenery and of course beaches galore. Wander charming cobblestone streets and discover the history of Santo Domingo, the oldest city in the Americas. Explore the country’s mysterious caverns and lush subtropical rainforests. Play in the sand on miles of pristine beaches and discover the underwater beauty of lively coral reefs. Steeped in history, with a delightful blend of traditional and modern, it’s a no-brainer why the Dominican Republic has become a hotspot for tourists from all over the world.

He recently was in the hospital from Chemo, radiation combo that knocked him out. My brother was discharged with suggestion that he go on hospice (metastasis to his liver and lungs). Since he's (patient) in good health otherwise and has two young kids (10 and 8), he (patient) has chosen to continue fighting and figuring out if there are options for him. Gradually he's gotten some strength back. We are seeking a RN, LPN, LVN or CNA who can spend nights and occasionally stay throughout the day as needed. This person needs to be very compassionate and caring but also very firm with my brother (the patient) as he is stubborn. Example, patient ended up in hospital when the caretaker wasn't their because he my brother (patient) wasn't drinking enough water and his blood pressure dropped. My brother is seeking that the RN, LPN, LVN or CNA to be very persistent when it comes to important things on keeping him as well as possible so that his body can be in good condition to fight the cancer if possible.

The radiation has helped tremendously with the pain in the calf, otherwise he is ok, eats well, sleeps well.

· We are visitors in this country and guests at the school. · We are ALWAYS representing the United States; let’s make sure we are setting a good example. · The children look up to us, admire us and will want to imitate us. While on school grounds there is NO SMOKING and we need to be careful of what we say and our facial expressions ~ we do not want to offend them or hurt their feelings. · The children LOVE having their picture taken but, when we are not at the school, we are not at the zoo. Please be courteous of people’s feelings ~ ask before you snap…and if they say ‘no’, then please respect that. · This is the hard one ~ please refrain from handing out things ~ it promotes the beggar mentality we are fighting so hard to break and it can cause a huge disruption at the school and a mob on the street. · It’s a long trip, not everyone travels the same…be considerate of everyone…I promise, you’re not the only one who’s tired!! J · Communicate ~ if you don’t feel well, let someone know, keeping it a secret does no one any good! · Enjoy yourself!!! This can be very heavy emotionally, but remember, you are changing these children’s lives for the better…and they yours.
Thank you for being here!
HISTORY OF SYLVIA’S CHILDREN
Sylvia Allen, President of Allen Consulting, was quite content teaching at New York University, traveling around the world doing motivational seminars and running her public relations and marketing business in Holmdel, NJ. Having taught in China, India, Ireland, Japan, Okinawa, Iceland, Canada and throughout most of the United States, she was sure that was how the rest of her life would play out. Little did she know that a trip to Uganda, Africa in 2003 would totally change her life! Fourteen years ago Sylvia was invited to Uganda, Africa by one of her NYU students. While there she was invited by the children of the Mbiriizi Advanced Primary and Day Care School, to be their grandmother. She took the request seriously and upon returning to the United States she formed Sylvia’s Children, a 501(c)3 organization under United States IRS code. The school has grown dramatically in the last ten years … going from 439 children (of which 136 were orphans) to 1,012 (of which 250 are orphans). The school is based on the British model and starts with baby class, moves up to top class, and then P-1 to P-7. We are creating a series of African entrepreneurship businesses that will allow the school to be self-sustaining and allow Sylvia’s Children to take this model and replicate it in another village.
In the 14 years we have been with the school all of our children have taken their P-7 exams and graduated. If they are sponsored orphans we have asked their sponsors to continue working with them at the next level … S-1 to S-6. We currently have 150 orphans in S-1 through S-6 plus 50 in college and technical schools and will continue with our orphan support as the others graduate.
“This experience has changed my life … for the better. I have learned to love and be loved, to give and to receive graciously, and to know that I can make a difference in a child’s life. I also have the joy of my children being part of organization. All else pales in comparison.”
We invite you to visit our website … www.sylviaschildren.org, get on our mailing list (just e-mail Sylvia@sylviaschildren.org to get updates), keep up-to-date by visiting http://sylviaschildren.blogspot.com … we’d love to have you experience the same joy we have had in working with these beautiful, loving, caring children who want nothing more than to hold your hand or sit on your lap. Please help us to continue making a difference in these children’s lives.
