Language Learning — the Tool for Social Empowerment
We believe education is the most powerful weapon to change the world.
We chose English language learning as our first educational initiative because we recognize its critical importance in a globalized world. English proficiency paves the way for meaningful connections across cultures, unlocks opportunities for employment and international education, fuels entrepreneurial ventures, and provides access to a vast expanse of global knowledge.
We hope that the Complimentary English Course for children and adults in Samaná will serve as a significant tool for social empowerment within the local communities!
In the Dominican Republic, despite English being a mandatory subject in local schools and a key language in business and tourism, it is not widely spoken across the country. Less than 1% of the population is considered to speak English. Additionally, there is a distinct group, comprising around 1% of the population, who speak a local Samaná English dialect. The demand for English speakers is surging due to the increasing presence of international corporations, a booming tourism sector, and a growing number of foreign settlers. In this context, proficiency in English offers a significant advantage in the job market, an opportunity we aim to extend to the communities of Samaná.
The Samana Group Foundation was established to support the Samaná community. We are determined to use our resources for the region's sustainable development, focusing on both environmental and social aspects. Our initiatives include creating community centers, a Samana school with free English lessons, and subsidy programs for local entrepreneurship.
