For Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, memorials, or anytime:
Give a Gift That Will Change a Life
 
Mail-In Gift Form
 
          As you shop for holiday or other gifts, please consider honoring family members and friends with a designated gift to the Haiti Education Foundation. You can choose scholarships, textbooks, Creole Bibles, school uniforms, shoes, milk, goats, or any other item listed on the Gift Form. One hundred percent of your contribution will go directly to Haiti to purchase the items you select. In return, you will receive a greeting card for each honoree, listing his or her gift. Your donation will visibly impact children and communities in St. Matthais Parish, and will express your caring for each family member or friend in whose honor or memory you give.
 
What can you buy? How will it help a Haitian child?
 
scholarship "Your gift of a scholarship allows me to attend school for one year. I also receive one hot meal for lunch each day. The things I learn at school I share with my family. Often I share my meal with my siblings."
 
Scholarship $55

Textbook $5

What can you present to your family members and friends?
 
          You may select either of these card designs for each person you wish to honor. The actual paper card measures about 4 1/4 by 5 1/4 inches. The printed message inside each card reads as shown below. Brackets represent information you write in yourself. Parentheses represent possible gifts and recipients (machine-printed). You may also request cards that are blank inside.
