DREAM Project, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing high-quality educational opportunities and promoting reading among children, youth, and families in the Dominican Republic, joined forces with Orica, one of the world's leading mining and infrastructure solutions providers, to host a book fair at the Arroyo Vuelta rural primary school in Pueblo Viejo, Sánchez Ramirez, themed “Book Safari,” as part of the DREAM Project’s "Mi Propia Biblioteca" (My Very Own Library) program.

The DREAM Project and Cigar Country have teamed up to promote exemplary practices in early childhood education in the Dominican Republic through the DREAM Montessori Award. This prize is aimed at identifying and supporting institutions dedicated to fostering high-quality education from an early age.
