Pencils With Passion: A Non-Profit Making a Difference in the Dominican Republic | Lilly Thomson
We are delighted to highlight Pencils With Passion, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that aims to improve the lives of students attending Collegio Christianos and Celeste Faro, two schools in the Veron area of the Dominican Republic’s far eastern coast. At Grindaholik Media Group, we had the opportunity to work with Pencils With Passion to design their website and bring their mission to life.
The founder of Pencils With Passion, Lilly Thomson, was inspired to start this organization during her Girl Scouts journey, where she received her Bronze and Silver Awards. The final step in Lilly’s scouting career was to earn her Gold Award. For her project, Lilly decided to raise awareness of the issues that children in impoverished areas face when it comes to receiving a quality education.
Through her research, Lilly discovered that the two schools in Veron lacked essential learning materials and resources, making it difficult for students to receive a proper education. She felt compelled to make a difference and started Pencils With Passion, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing these schools with the resources they need to thrive. Pencils With Passion is committed to connecting schools, communities, and individuals to improve education in impoverished areas. Their primary objective is to ensure that students attending Collegio Christianos and Celeste Faro have access to the learning materials they require to succeed.
At Grindaholik Media Group, we were inspired by Lilly’s story and her dedication to enhancing the education of children in the Dominican Republic. We wanted to create a website that not only showcased Pencils With Passion’s mission but also made it easy for donors to support their cause. Our team worked closely with Pencils With Passion to design a website that is visually appealing, mobile-responsive, and user-friendly. We also included features such as a donation page and volunteer application form to encourage visitors to get involved.
Through their efforts, Pencils With Passion has achieved significant milestones. They have provided essential supplies such as pencils, paper, and books to schools. Thanks to the support of generous donors, they have been able to make a tangible impact on the lives of children, families, and staff in the communities they serve.
We are honored to support Pencils With Passion’s mission and inspired by the dedication of Lilly and her team. Their commitment to enhancing education in impoverished areas of the Dominican Republic is truly remarkable, and we look forward to seeing the impact they will continue to make.
If you would like to get involved and support Pencils With Passion’s mission, please visit their website and consider making a donation or signing up to volunteer. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children and families in need.
