About the Fundacion Ferries del Caribe: The Fundacion Ferries del Caribe was founded in 1999, by Néstor González to help build households in the extremely poor area of the Batey Isabela Province in Barahona. Before the Foundation began it’s fantastic work most people living in this area were living in mud houses, the aim of the Fundacion Ferries del Caribe is to convert Batey Isabela into a town of at least 500 concrete houses. All proceeds from this tournament went to the Fundacion Ferries del Caribe Charity, to enable them to continue their fabulous work in the Batey Isabela Province.
