Providing a meal at school is a simple but concrete way to give poor children a chance to learn and thrive. They become better students when their bodies are well nourished and healthy. The incentive of getting a meal also reduces absenteeism. Most importantly, performance improves and drop-out rates decreases. The first operational phase of the Haitian Consortium Feeding program for the school year-2008-2009 is already on the way for a big success. It is estimated that 15,000 children on a monthly basis will be provided with at least one hot meal a day. Your donation will help us accomplish our mission |
The Technology has proliferated around our homes, and the personal computer has become as essential as the telephone in our daily lives. Computers, though, come with their own complex universe of equipment challenges, software issues and difficult-to-learn interfaces. Haitian families cannot afford to buy or maintain a computer at home due to limited income, lack of electricity, money for training, and internet capability. For the next five years, the Haitian Consortium will develop a free/sharing Laptop Program for Haitian students. People can donate their old computers and laptop to the Consortium and receive a tax deduction for each donation. Please contact us for your hardware and software donations. |
