Contributions of COOPINFA through Education and Social Responsibility to the Economic and Social Development of Members of the Armed Forces and Dominican Society

Throughout the global context, cooperativism has been promoted as a form of inclusion for people in the economic system and as a solution to combat social, social and business inequalities mixed in a single institution that seeks to achieve comprehensive goals in different spaces. In times where the foundations of the solidarity and collective bases of society are disintegrating and, above all, cooperation as an endless source of well-being, cooperativism emerges as a wise decision to reverse the prevailing processes of existing economic deterioration. That is why the Cooperative of Savings, Credits and Multiple Services of the Members of the Armed Forces (COOPINFA) through the cooperative principles, its values, as well as its collective philosophy and social inclusion constitutes a fundamental pillar in the equitable socioeconomic development of its members, promoting well-being among them through education and a solidary and democratic social responsibility, reducing the gaps and exclusion of the members of the the Armed Forces, their families and society in general, promoting mechanisms of transformation in areas such as health, support for communities and environmental development, becoming a producer of development and distributor of wealth and prosperity.
