My "Why"

On June 22nd, I’m “Lacing Up My Shoes” and walking  5km with Haiti in My Heart to Be A Champion for a child in Haiti.   I believe in the value of helping others, and that education is the key to ending devastating poverty.  In Haiti, education is not readily accessible to the majority of Haitian families as they must pay for their child's tuition, books, uniform, and supplies.   But, at the school Haiti in My Heart operates, families pay only a nominal annual registration fee to access education for their child. That's why I'm fundraising for Haiti in My Heart.     I’ve been matched with Lovelie to provide for her educational needs for the 2024-2025 school year.680bbb2febaa3.png I’ve set a goal to raise $600.00 which will provide books and a uniform, daily lunch, tuition for a year of education for Lovelie.

Please give generously!  Let’s ensure Lovelie has all she needs for the school year! Find all the event details here: https://www.haitiinmyheart.ca/lace-up-for-haiti  

Description

Help end devastating poverty in Haiti.  Become a Child's Champion!

There is massive potential in Haiti’s youth.   70% of the population is under the age of 35.   These are the country’s leaders, professionals, teachers, skilled trades people, agriculturalists, engineers, healthcare professionals and workers - future mothers and fathers.

The waste of human capital is one of the primary sources of instability in Haiti over the last 50 years, making it difficult for the economy to grow and ensure the social progress Haiti needs.  The events in Haiti in recent years (the gang blockade of the seaport in September 2022 and take over 80% of Port au Prince in March 2024) are a direct result of the lack of investment in Haiti’s primary human capital.

For nearly 15 years, Haiti in My Heart has educated 300 children annually, aged 3-18 years, to build this human capital.  The school's annual student retention rate is 90%+, with a 90% pass rate of the Grade 9 students completing their government exams.

When you donate to Haiti in My Heart, you change lives!


With your support, we can continue to provide access to education, end malnutrition, and help children in Haiti realize their dreams.

Thank you for helping to build a world where ALL children can learn, play, and grow!
