Our MISSION

The mission of Concerned Residents for Improvement, Inc. (COREFI) is to improve the quality of life of vulnerable individuals and families in Vieques, Puerto Rico, by addressing food insecurity, promoting community well-being, and providing compassionate support to those most in need.

Through nutritious meals, community outreach, education, volunteerism, and strategic partnerships, we are committed to serving older adults, children, individuals with disabilities, and economically disadvantaged families with dignity, respect, and love.

We believe that access to food is a fundamental human need, that every person deserves to be treated with compassion, and that lasting community transformation begins with people helping people.

At COREFI, food is love, service is our commitment, and dignity is at the heart of everything we do.

Since 2008, COREFI, INC. is a 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to improving the lives of disadvantaged communities in Vieques, Puerto Rico. We have served residents who lack essential resources such as social security numbers and other resources.

We provided vital services to those facing illness and disability by building ramps and accessible bathrooms, repairing roofs, and delivering food, water, and medicines.

Now we are dedicating additional resources to food security through our meals delivery program, which brings nutritious, regular meals directly to homebound and vulnerable residents.

Every contribution sustains our efforts and supports vulnerable community members. Your generosity helps expand our mission and upholds the dignity of those in need. Support COREFI today.

Support for senior individuals at home.
