The violence and chaos in Haiti have escalated but students in our partner communities continue to be protected by their mountainous isolation. They have been going to school and getting lunch every weekday. But no matter where you are, every school needs teachers and every student needs lunch. Every day, every month. It is simple. Without lunch, children can't focus. They fall asleep in class. Their brains don't develop properly. They get discouraged and don't progress to the next grade.
But we can help by providing a full lunch program. With your help and mine, those children can grow up strong and smart. They can take advantage of education and maybe even solve some of the big problems in their country some day.
It will take $40,000 to provide lunch for all 250 children for a year. The cost is less than a dollar per meal per child - meaning that even a small donation makes a big impact. Consider sending a check for under $10 to the address listed below.
It costs $400/month more to cover the remaining teacher salaries. Donate Now to Help!
Would you help us? How can these students learn if they don't eat? How can they improve their lives if they don't learn? You can see my goal on the thermometer. Please Donate Now to help me reach my goal. Or come to one of the events below. It feels so good to make a difference!
If you prefer to donate with a check, please write it to Future Forward for Haiti, and mail it to T.Skinner 9 Juniper Street Wenham MA 01984 We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with no paid employees so over 95% of your gift goes to provide these meals.
