Cristal Pierre David

Country: Dominican Republic

My birthday is 2016-04-27

Status: Vulnerable Child

I want to be a journalist.

I enjoy drawing and playing with dolls.

My favorite subject is Art.

Cristal lives in Batey Lecheria, a village on the outskirts of Santo Domingo located in the area of Los Alcarrizos. Villages are generally divided into Dominican villages or Haitian villages. Lecheria is a predominantly Haitian village. Like many villages in the Dominican Republic, people often settle and build makeshift homes on land they do not own. Cristal lives with both parents and her younger sister Gabriela. Her dad collects sand near the river for a living but cannot adequately provide for his family. Cristal attends the public school, and art is her favorite subject. Her favorite color is blue, and she loves to play with dolls and hang out with her friends. Cristal wants to become a journalist in the future.
