March 2020 Trip Highlights
On our March trip to Haiti, we were able to offer a
Typing class to 25 students on computers. It was very well received and the students learned a lot. We hope to continue offering computer education.
VBS brought 380 kids to participate in the week’s activities. It’s always a joy to see their enthusiasm, and it brings us just as much joy to provide this fun way of sharing God’s stories of hope.
VBS is a chance to interact and spend time with the students at Lott Carey and our team gains just as much from the experience as the kids.
We were able to provide
physicals to about half the student body in March, as well as offer a
mobile clinic at Lott Carey Church to students and their families.
New Glasses for Mr. Ceser
Mr. Jimmy Ceser, one of our Math and Science teachers at Lott Carey, was in need of a new pair of glasses. He was able to get glasses and can now see beyond an arm’s length while teaching our students. Jimmy was born in Leogane and is married to his wife Josette Jean Louis who is a 1st grade teacher at Lott Carey as well. Together, they have a beautiful 9 month old baby girl.
New Sponsor System
We are excited to be leaning into our recent 501c3 status, which is allowing us more flexibility. We recently launched this new website where we'll highlight news from Haiti, videos, opportunities, and more. It will integrate with our new “behind the scenes” sponsor system that will allow us faster and more frequent updates from Haiti that we can share with sponsors. You can expect to hear more from our team about this in the weeks to come. We look forward to sharing photos and messages between students and their sponsors.
Facebook Fundraiser Success
Our first “official” Facebook fundraiser was a huge success, raising $2,200 for Haiti Kids School. We love how simple and interactive social media is to engage with everyone who has a heart for Haiti.
