Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, December 15, 2022 – Dolphin Discovery Punta Cana, a member of The Dolphin Company family, a worldwide park operator, received recognition from the Fundación Autismo sin Fronteras (Autism Without Borders Foundation) for its collaboration, commitment, and selfless dedication for more than six years.
The Fundación Autismo sin Fronteras (Autism Without Borders Foundation) was founded in 2016 with the mission to promote well-being, highlight opportunities, and achieve equality for children, teenagers, and adults with diverse conditions and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD).
“Throughout the year, we constantly carry out activities that have an altruistic purpose. One of them is 10,000 smiles, a Children’s Day campaign that offers access to interaction with dolphins at a low cost, and funds collected are donated to several foundations that contribute to the welfare of children, teenagers, and adults, and aspects such as health, housing, and education. During 2017 and 2019 we had the opportunity to donate toys and funds derived from this activity to Fundación Autismo sin Fronteras (Autism Without Borders Foundation), which helped in the therapy of more than one hundred people,” said Jesús Sánchez, General Manager of Dolphin Discovery Punta Cana.
Since the creation of The Fundación Autismo sin Fronteras (Autism Without Borders Foundation), Dolphin Discovery Punta Cana has supported them by donating and actively participating in autism awareness activities, inviting the community to grant equal opportunities to people with autism and to learn more about them and ASD.
