WE PRESENT SOLUTIONS - Our main focus lies on the support through active life support of people with social needs. Many members of society seem to be left alone, or feel left alone with their situation. Isolation and fear or even substance abuse or addiction are consequences and the beginning of the wrong path to follow. Our projects and activities shall inspire and give people with social needs the chance to build themselves slowly back up into being a part of the society:
ONE WOMAN WITH A VISION. The charity initiative was founded by Dominika Justine Tux, scientist for media and communication, musician and multimedia artist. Born in Poland, grown up in Germany she developed a big love for Trinidad and Tobago through its music. After becoming as Mika Raguaa, an ambassador for the music genre Soca in Europe, she decided to come to learn more about the country after her first visit in 2015. While living in different areas of the twin island (including Woodbrook, Belmont, San Juan and Scarborough) she observed society developments out of “the eye of a stranger”. On a daily base she is facing problems the society has to deal with. Not only that topics like poverty, corruption, crime, racism and child abuse are found in daily conversations and news reports, many suffer from the consequences and often also from traumatic happenings in the past. Difficulties between gender, ethnicities as well as historical and cultural changings under the media influence also seem to influence confidence and self-esteem.
It is the vision to support and encourage communities positively through the sharing of knowledge to improve daily lifes and spread motivation to society members of any age, ethnic and religious group with social needs (especially children, youths, disabled and elders) in Trinidad and Tobago and support actively with creative involvement, creation of media awareness, publication of "social media" abd reconnection to history, nature, art and culture in an inspiring, educative and empowering way.
