4. Lula and her family received their new home
on May 27. Thanks to Amarilis, Segundo
and our Javillar crew for the construction.
Thank you to Ruby Best and her family for
donating the funds for this home!

5. On June 21, 2021, we announced to David and Sheyla that they would be getting a new home.
Funds were raised for Amarilis’s birthday. Sheyla is her daughter and helps so much with the
foundation. Due to unforeseen zoning and government regulations, the home cost much more
than expected and the family had to borrow funds to complete the construction. David and
Sheyla moved in exactly one year later June 21, 2022. We are so happy for them.

6. The home for Fernando and Vickyana and
family is complete! Thanks to our Home-
Building-Committee and others who donated
funds to surprise the family with a new
home. Fernando is one of our construction
managers and does a wonderful job helping
others!! We are so grateful for his skills and
dedication!!

8. We completed the construction of the home
for Jordy, Maria and family. Thanks to many,
many donors. They are extremely grateful!!

9. Raidely is 12 years old and helps
with so many community things.
She is training to be the future
director of the foundation. Her
mom Jhohaira also helps with
many foundation projects. They
were living in a rented place.
We started raising money in
June for this family for
Amarilis’s birthday.
Construction started at the
end of June and was
completed in August. It is
beautiful and they are so
grateful. Thanks to all our
donors!!

10. Renault does parging
for a living. The family
did some upgrades to
the home and chose to
move in before it was
complete. They moved
in just before Hurricane
Fiona so that they
would be safe and dry.
They will be finishing
their own home.

11. Construction was completed on Dominga’s home. We
were also able to attend a beautiful opening ceremony
on September 29. This included all of the workers who
helped with the home. We appreciate all their efforts.
Dominga and her family are so very grateful for this life-
changing gift.

12. Angelica’s home is complete!!
On October 8, a group from Las
Vegas, NV, Maryland and
Okotoks, Alberta painted the
home! The money for the paint
was raised by 11-year-old
Sophie Palmer from Maryland.
Angelica is thrilled!!

13. Jomira and her husband have been
working to built their own home for
several years for themselves and their
3 children. They are so grateful for
the help that they were given by
Wade Payne and Dominican Starfish
Foundation to finish this project!

14. Elias's health problems
began 13 years ago in 2009.
One day he got up and
couldn't walk. He went to
the doctor. They found
some herniated discs in his
back. A very unsuccessful
surgery followed leaving
him unable to walk.
Elias then lost his job and
could no longer support his
family. Neighbors and
friends have been helping.
These same neighbors and
friends pleaded with
Dominican Starfish
Foundation to help him.
Their new home was
completed November 3.

15. Funds for this home were donated by Save the World
Foundation directed by Tamara Fackrell.
The Polanco family lived in impoverished conditions but give
freely what they can to help in the community.
The Dominican Starfish team of workers built the home.

16. Adonis works at the Lifestyle Resort as
a security guard. He makes less than
$200 a month. They have a little girl
and just had a new baby girl
November 5. They live in a very
difficult situation. They are so poor.
His wife lived with her mother, and he
lived with his mother because neither
place had room for both of them.
The house is in a very
tight spot, but it is all
the land that they
own.
Construction started
November 5. The home
was finished on
December 10.
