There are more than 50 families involved in this school.
There are 451 around 3000 peoples in Cap Destree Bas Tapion.
In 2009, A "Bon Samaritan" group built a little school for the children and the school was completely destroyed by the earthquake. The children has no choice but to attend classes under tents made with different materials that have been specifically designed to be used for camping and hiking tents.
The goal of the program is to rebuild the school with a computer room to keep them update. This community also needs a community health care center.
The food pantry and a cafeteria will be a plus in addition to the plans mentioned above but this request is considered as priority. Our dream is to change the condition that they are living now.
Sometime when we ask them what they expect in the future? they say "nothing we don't see any future for Haiti precisely where we live" we keep encourage them and keep telling them that God is going to make a way some how!
