Ministry partner: Emanuel House

Location: Quisqueya, Dominican Republic

Emanuel House (EH) is a school serving 200 children from many of the poorest families in Quisqueya, feeding them spiritually, physically, and emotionally. In addition to Bible study and education, children receive access to clean water, functioning bathrooms, and regular meals (breakfast, lunch, and a snack)—which they may not have access to at home.

Emanuel House especially stands out for its work with neurodiverse children, who constitute about 70% of its student body. It trains the community to care well for these special needs children and pairs this care with Bible classes. Additionally, it provides occupational, language, music, and art therapy to children.

For several years, Emanuel House has operated a community water program as an outreach to their neighbors. They have one of the only wells in town and have used it to bottle and sell clean water to the community. In addition to providing the residents of the town, several local sports teams, and people in outlying areas with safe, clean drinking water, the income from this project completely covers the school's electricity costs and salaries for five of their full-time staff.
