El Fondo Agua Santo Domingo (FASD) es un mecanismo innovador creado para garantizar recursos de inversión orientados a la restauración y conservación de ecosistemas en las cuencas hidrográficas que abastecen de agua a la ciudad de Santo Domingo. La iniciativa opera a través de contribuciones de capital hechas de forma voluntaria por grandes usuarios del agua, así como donaciones de empresas y personas sensibilizadas. Los recursos captados se invierten en el mercado de capitales a través de fiducias, mientras que los retornos financieros se invierten en el apalancamiento de recursos adicionales para la implementación de proyectos. El FASD fue constituido en el mes de octubre del año 2013, de conformidad con las disposiciones de la Ley 122-05 sobre regulación y fomento de las asociaciones sin fines de lucro (ASFL) de la República Dominicana. El fondo es miembro de la Alianza Latinoamericana de Fondos de Agua, que también tiene presencia en países como México, Colombia, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Perú y Brasil.
