Love People and Feed Them!
Let me tell you a few things about St. Louis d'Ayiti:
- Children in this mountain village are isolated from most of the countries violence.
- They are attending school regularly while children in the urban areas are not attending school.
- They are meeting in the school you have helped construct ( second phase paused due to COVID and the countries unrest.)
- We are supporting teacher salaries through your generous contributions.
- We hope to provide financial resources so each child has the books they need to learn this year.
- St. Louis d'Ayiti has a group of adults participating in an Adult Literacy Program.
Here's my plan:
I'm going to the North Shore Packathon for Haiti on October 20 and 21to help pack lunches for school children there. We plan to provide six months of food for the lunch program for more than 200 children in the Light and Peace School of St. Louis d'Ayiti, way out in the remote mountaints of Haiti. Packathon volunteers will form assembly lines in the Parish Hall at Christ Church of Hamilton and Wenham to pack over 50,000 meals for them.
I want to make sure those Haitian children can count on lunch every weekday next school year, beginning January 1, 2024.
On average, every volunteer packs a box of 240 lunches. "My" box will hold $74 dollars worth of rice, beans, vegetables and vitamins, enough to feed one student for a year. So my goal is to raise over $1,000 to feed the entire 5th grade for a year. I also want to pay for school workbooks at $35.00 per student and support teacher's salaries at $100 a month to keep the school open and thriving. We have approximately, 200 students, 8 teachers and 2 cooks at the school. Will you help? Together, we really can make a difference!
