The Heritage Tourism and Community Service program is a network of social enterprises comprised of three different community-based nonprofit organizations from the north, south and west regions of Puerto Rico. We invite you to visit and experience what each of these organizations have to offer and discover the inspirational history of community service and unique wealth of natural and cultural heritage that distinguishes them.

Look at what the other organizations have to offer: Casa Juan Pablo II in San German and Centro Esperanza in Loiza, or through their sponsor (organization) Bravo Family Foundation.
