“Tropicalia’s 2020 Sustainability Report reflects upon the risks mitigated and the opportunities embraced in the midst of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Our stakeholder approach to business is the best line of defense in turbulent times.”

RESPONSE TO COVID-19
When Dominican Republic closed its borders, we issued work-from-home policies, biosafety campaigns in our local community, and a revised construction schedule.
A REVISED RESORT PROGRAM
As the global pandemic put the tourism and travel industry on hold, we revised our resort program to accommodate the post-pandemic traveler and second home-owner.

Fundación Tropicalia impacted the lives of 3,323 beneficiaries (66% female, 34% male), by successfully implementing six programs in 2020.
AWARDS
Tropicalia was honored by the Mercury Excellence Awards in the category of Corporate Social Responsibility Reports for its 2018 Sustainability Report. Fundacion Tropicalia was awarded a grant by Canadian Fund for Local Initiatives.
