Mariposa DR Foundation is a foundation based in Cabarete, Puerto Plata, focused on girls’ education and empowerment in the Dominican Republic. Its work centers on education, impact, underrepresented communities, health and wellness, sustainability and community programs through academic enrichment, experiential learning, environmental education, arts and culture, health services and social enterprise. It is most relevant for nonprofit, education, gender-equity and social-impact initiatives tied to the Dominican Republic rather than conventional startup financing.
