”Start by doing what’s necessary, then what’s possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”~ Saint Francis
Through the generosity of all our sponsors, friends and family and most especially the hard work of our Warrior Kids, DTI has donated over $41,300 to various charities.
Teaching our children the meaning of giving, helping and being there for others is the highest level of being a true warrior.
Lets help our Warrior Kids in their efforts to help others!!! -Master P.

KICKATHON 2024
We're Back!
After so many delays and cancelations due to COVID scare, we are finally back! Kickathon 2024 will be taking place in September. DTI is partnering with Business to Barrio to provide clean water for children in Nicaragua.
About Nicaragua
Nicaragua is the poorest Spanish-speaking country in the world.
Pre-COVID unemployment in the barrios was over 50%; post-COVID unemployment is closer to 80%.
Many rural Nicaraguans walk 2 miles for clean drinking water!
We take so much for granted in our fast passed, convenient based lifestyle that we often forget how much we could do to help those that don't have the same advantages. Here's your chance!
KICKING FOR KIDS
Become an event sponsor or sponsor one of our young warriors and help them raise money for the kids in Nicaragua.
How does it work? Each one of our kids will be given an allotted amount of time, depending on their age, to kick a bag within that timeframe. You, as the sponsor, can pay the child anywhere between 5 cents and $1 per kick.
The total kicks will be your donation.
