Empowering Youth, Building Futures
Welcome to La Fábrica de Sueños, a transformative foundation based in the heart of Las Terrenas, Dominican Republic. Our mission is to empower young adults aged 16 to 20 who have left the traditional school system by equipping them with the skills, tools, and opportunities they need to achieve personal growth, professional success, and community impact.
At La Fábrica de Sueños, we believe that every individual deserves the chance to dream, learn, and thrive. Through innovative programs, hands-on training, and a supportive community, we create pathways for these young adults to build meaningful careers, elevate their quality of life, and contribute to the vibrant local economy—especially in Las Terrenas’ thriving tourism sector.
Our Vision
To create a self-sustaining ecosystem where education, community, and sustainability come together to empower individuals and enrich society.
What We Do
We offer comprehensive programs designed to nurture essential skills and provide real-world experience:
Vocational Training: Tailored to the needs of Las Terrenas, focusing on hospitality, culinary arts, property management, sustainable agriculture, and artisanal craftsmanship.
Personal and Professional Development: Building soft skills such as time management, teamwork, communication, and professionalism.
Sustainable Living Practices: Teaching eco-friendly techniques through our organic garden, farm, and environmental education initiatives.
Internships and Employment Opportunities: Connecting graduates to meaningful jobs within our network, including the Sienna Real Estate Development community and its residents.
Our Values
We are deeply committed to the values of:
Empowerment: Equipping young adults with the tools they need to create better futures.
Sustainability: Promoting eco-friendly practices and self-sufficiency.
Community: Building an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone thrives.
Culture: Celebrating local traditions and sharing them with the world.
Why We Do It
In Las Terrenas and the greater Samaná region, many young adults face limited access to education and employment opportunities, leaving them unprepared for the workforce. La Fábrica de Sueños exists to bridge this gap, preparing these individuals to succeed in the growing tourism industry while fostering personal growth and community development.
By creating virtuous cycles of learning, work, and sustainability, we aim to transform lives, empower the local workforce, and support the dynamic Las Terrenas community.
