Ready For School!
Haitian Homes for Haitian Children has 11 children ready for the first day of school (October 3rd). Our Haitian staff has worked many hours to make sure that these children have their uniforms tailor-made to fit each child. The children's school tuition and fees for the entire year of 2012-2013 have been paid by our generous supporters. Each child has pencils and paper and their own book bag. Because classrooms are open and contain nothing but benches, tables and a blackboard, the children must carry all of their supplies with them every day. The older children even carry heavy dictionaries with them.
The only thing missing will be the faces of the 5 children that we have not yet found funding for. But we have not given up yet! Some of you may have a friend, a group you belong to, or a church you go to, who have an extra $2 a day to allow a child in Haiti to go to school and remain with their own family rather than be sent to an orphanage. Just share what we are doing and give them the opportunity to be part of one of these children's lives.
God Bless You,
Jane
