Your $25 a month can change a student’s life in Port au Prince, Haiti.
There is no free public education system in Haiti, due to this less than 60% of elementary students are enrolled in school and by 9th grade, less than 20% are still enrolled in school. Through our sponsorship program, we offer students a chance to receive a solid education. Our students develop life skills that will equip them to positively impact their communities and the world. For our donors, sponsorship provides an opportunity to connect with a student at the Institution Mixte le Phare Des Anges (IMPA) and develop a personal relationship that can last a lifetime! |
