T-Shirts Haiti Images Building Newsletters Contact HEF Sponsor Form Ways Form Gift Form Student Sponsorship Sponsorship Form Gift Form A Full Year of School for $55           Frances Landers, the founder of the Haiti Education Foundation, and Father Jean-Wilfrid Albert, the Haitian priest in St. Matthias Parish, have designed a budget in which $55 provides a full year of school for one child, including a hot, nutritious lunch each day.           How can such a small amount of money do so much? Father Albert lives in the community and administers the funds carefully, finding teachers and supplies locally. The average yearly income in Haiti is less than $300, so supplies are cheap and salaries are low. 100% of each scholarship is used for the child; there are no administrative expenses. You Can Make a Difference           You can help by sponsoring a child for $55 (less than 16¢ a day). Renew your sponsorship each year before the October school term opens. You will receive a photograph and you will know that all your money is helping the child who needs it.           Writing to the child you sponsor is not practical, since there is no mail delivery in rural Haiti and the people speak only Creole. But Christmas and special occasions can be remembered with an extra gift of $3. Father Albert will see that each child receives an appropriate small gift.
