News and upcoming events from Believe in Haiti
September 2019
Believe in Haiti is devoted to keeping Haitian families together through love, education, and service, while empowering individuals to rise above their current poverty level.

Now is the Time!

Believe in Haiti has made some great strides in the last year.  Between purchasing and fencing land, starting many programs, sponsoring education, and establishing the Hope Center, it has been an incredibly busy and productive year.  
Establishing the Hope Center has been vital and game-changing for Believe in Haiti and St. Rock.  There is now a "home base" to connect with St. Rock.  There is a spot to learn English, to learn to sew, to learn about agriculture, and most importantly, to connect.  The Hope Center has provided a landing spot for not only Believe in Haiti, but for all the citizens in St. Rock to build relationships.  Whether it's sitting down in a chair with a book and practicing reading or playing a game of cards, the Hope Center has provided a place of comfort and growth.  Now we fully see what it can, and has, become.  We want to make it official, and we need your help.
Believe in Haiti is incredibly lucky, as we have an anonymous donor who is willing to match up to $50,000.  This generous matching campaign can help turn the lease on the Hope Center into ownership.  Programs will be able to expand, new programs can be implemented, and new job opportunities will be possible for St. Rock when we purchase the Hope Center.  The Hope Center is a place of security and education, love and comfort.  And with your help, it can continue for generations to provide St. Rock with opportunity.  
If you've been thinking about donating to Believe in Haiti, NOW is the time!  Your donation will go twice as far as any other time.  Together, we can keep hope in Haiti.  

St. Rock News

St. Rock Celebration
Every year, St. Rock holds a huge celebration on August 15, the day it was founded.  It is quite a celebration!  The streets were full of people, music, dancing, and food all day long and long into the night.  
One of the English students, Dave, ran the music and turned into "DJ Dave" for the party!  We had the opportunity to join the celebration and loved being part of this great moment in the community.
The English students have graduated!  After a lot of hard work and studying, we were able to celebrate these wonderful students and their passing of the first English class.  Our friend Elamase made a beautiful cake and we took them swimming to celebrate with them!  We are so proud of the motivation these boys had through the English course this year and are excited for their progression into the next English class.
How to help this month
Your donation to Believe in Haiti will go twice as far this month!  Any donation is helpful and very much appreciated!

Haiti Spotlight
James Albert
James Albert, one of the English Program participants, was a recipient of a school sponsorship when the program started in 2013. Through the assistance of Believe in Haiti, and sponsors like you, James was able to complete his secondary school education. While James did not pass the national exam or have the ability to attend a university, the English Program provides him an opportunity to develop a marketable skill. James is hopeful that the continued development of his English skills will provide him an opportunity to work as a translator.
Your continued support of Believe in Haiti will provide the residents of St. Rock with post-secondary training that have the opportunity to grow into occupational opportunities.

 

 

Thank you!

 

Everything Believe in Haiti does is only possible because of your help.
