In 2023, Justin Sullivan, a neighbor and huge supporter of Música Pa’ Culebra, donated to FdC a property with a house and a large lot that is close to the Ecological School.

The Fundación has an urgent need for lodging space for teachers, service providers and other facilitators.  The lack of available housing has become a limiting factor in our growth.  Now we have a long term solution. 

 

We started by adding a shipping container with a roof and a deck which will eventually house a community space and a resiliency center. Meanwhile we are beginning to raise funds to reconfigure the main house to accommodate our housing needs and provide additional community space.

 

This property will be a place that can be used during emergencies to provide essential services to the community.  It will also serve as a model of sustainability, with solar power, water catchment and satellite internet.

 

Thanks to those who have helped in the construction of this first phase; Mike Gifford, Douglas Lang, José Hernández (Tony), Iván Porto, Cotto and his assistant for their work and love. To the missionaries of the Methodist Church for their help and support. To Abi Carrillo, Ana and their team. To German Amaro, Gaby Castro, Andrés Rivera, Manolo Dubon and all those who have supported us so far.
