Parque Doña Inés is a developing arboretum that collects, studies, and preserves tree species endemic to Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. Due to current economic hardships, the park requires additional short-term funding to complete construction and open to the public. Once the mission, goals, and needs of the park were established, potential benefactors were identified and investigated. Two databases were created: companies and grant foundations. These databases will allow the park to locate the funding required to survive and expand.
