Meet Allison
Allison Hale arrived in the Dominican Republic for the first time when she was 13 years old. Her parents, Doug and Paula Hodges, were missionaries to the city of La Romana. As she matured, a love for this country also grew. She returned every summer even throughout college to work and serve in the different cities of the DR.
In 2009, the women from their church began sharing with Allison the burden of what they were seeing in their town of San Pedro and the surrounding tourist areas.

And in 2010, Allison founded the ministry of Mercy Workshop
