DARDA Projects


DARDA has lent support to several worthwhile causes on the island of Dominica.  Some of its major recipients have been...

  • The Grotto Home for the Homeless

  • The Alpha Centre

  • The Dominica Infirmary

  • The Northern District Home For The Aged

  • The Dominica Red Cross

  • The Social Centre (including the establishment of a library for the Pre-School Education Program)

  • St. Ann's Day Nursery

  • The Princess Margaret Hospital

  • REACH (Reaching Elderly Abandoned Citizens that are Homebound)

  • The Education Trust Fund

  • The Roseau Public Library

  • Various public schools across the island


DARDA has initiated several of its own projects.  The most rewarding are the Annual Christmas Toy Drive - which yields hundreds of toys for the underprivileged children of Dominica, and The School Supply Drive - which provides underprivileged children throughout Dominica with school supplies for an entire academic year.  In addition to these programs, DARDA also implemented the Agatha Shillingford Scholarship Fund aimed at providing funding for academic and extra-curricular expenses to students in Dominica.
