410 Day: A New Frontier for Impact in the Dominican Republic

Every year on April 10th, we celebrate 410 Day—a day where we come together to support communities in need and fuel sustainable, Christ-centered transformation. This year, 410 Day is more important than ever because we’re stepping into a brand-new country: the Dominican Republic.

The challenges in these communities are urgent, and we need your help to bring real change.

Why the Dominican Republic?

While the Dominican Republic is known for its beautiful beaches and vibrant culture, many families are living in deep poverty, facing struggles that threaten their future every single day. Right now, we have an opportunity to partner with communities and local churches to bring hope, resources, and transformation.

But we can’t do it without you.

This 410 Day, our goal is to raise $100,000 to launch life-changing programs in the Dominican Republic that will:

  • Combat hunger that is keeping families trapped in a cycle of poverty
  • Stop domestic violence that is tearing families apart
  • Support young girls who are at risk of early pregnancy, cutting their childhood short
  • Protect children from gang activity that threatens their safety and future
  • Strengthen churches and communities so they can work together for long-term transformation

These issues are real, and the need is urgent. But together, we can be part of the solution.

        When Faith Becomes Action: The Story of Los Jazmines

        Two years ago, in a small community in Guatemala, a group of women and two gentlemen took a bold step of faith. They didn’t have a business plan or financial background. What they had was a shared desire—for something different, something better. They wanted to grow. They wanted to believe. And most of all, they wanted to act on their faith.

        That’s how Los Jazmines was born.

        At first, it was a simple savings group, supported by 410 Bridge. A place where members could learn to manage money and build a safety net. But it didn’t stay simple for long. It quickly transformed into something much deeper—a place of prayer, discipleship, encouragement, and miracles.

        Bringing Urgent Relief to Nicaragua’s Flooded Communities

        In the remote villages along the rivers of Nicaragua, life is changing—and not for the better.

        Recent floods have devastated entire communities, displacing families, destroying food supplies, and washing away crops that were meant to sustain them for months to come. The villages of Makantaka, Makantakita, Company Crick, Dakban, Guadalupe, Kansas City, Betania, Angloamerica, and La Esperanza have been hit especially hard. Over 80 families in each village are now facing an uncertain future.

        This isn’t the first time we’ve seen flooding in this region—but those on the ground are calling this situation uniquely devastating.

        Homes are unlivable. Crops are gone. Hunger is growing.

        The Story of Edy Josué Ruiz

        When Edy Josué Ruiz arrived at the rehabilitation center in 2018, his life was marked by loneliness and the pain of his father’s absence. He didn’t speak, didn’t play, and found refuge in silence. But God had a plan for him.

        The rehabilitation center provided the support he needed through speech therapy, motor skills development, and psychological counseling. However, it was the love and faith he encountered there that truly transformed his heart. Thanks to the therapists and their dedication, Edy began to open up—he learned to speak, to smile, and most importantly, to find peace through his faith in Jesus.

        Community leaders also played a key role in Edy and his mother’s journey. Through their constant support, prayers, and encouragement, they offered spiritual and emotional strength. The community became a fundamental pillar in his transformation.
