Sponsor-A-Student

About 90% of Haiti’s 15,200 primary schools are non-public and managed by the communities, religious organizations or NGOs.

There are about 1200 students in Boucan-Carré that benefit from the efforts of the Haiti Outreach Program. Since 2001, the number of children attending school has grown from 400 to over 1200. Currently we have over 1,000 youngsters in the primary school, 160 students in the high school, and 20 young girls in the vocational school. They range in age from 3-year-old preschoolers to 22-year-old vocational students.

Haiti Outreach Program provides these children with uniforms, books, and a daily hot lunch with a vitamin supplement. The daily meal the primary school provides is the only meal of the day for some of these children. With better nutrition, vitamins, vaccines and medical attention, the improvement in the children's general health and well being has been tremendous. Our organization also subsidizes the local educational system by improving facilities and helping to pay the salaries of 19 teachers.

Sponsorship is just $100 per year for the younger students and $200 for high school and vocational school students. If you send us your name and mailing address with your sponsorship, you will receive a certificate and a photo of a child you are helping.
