Activity 2

Sponsorships/feeding program - mal-nutrition and lack of education are two of the biggest issues the youth of haiti struggle to overcome. Because there is no free public education in haiti, many haitian children are not afforded the opportunity for consistent schooling, and therefore grow up to be unemployed and unable to support themselves. In an effort to confront these two major areas of need, we have created the restore haiti child sponsorship program. This program allows donors to help a specific child by providing funds for school tuition, uniforms, and testing fees. In addition, the child is admitted to our feeding program where they receive a hot meal, beverage, and multivitamin each day. Other benefits include access to medical clinics, and in some cases extra (see schedule o) financial assistance for their families specific needs. Sponsors are also given the opportunity to connect personally with the child through photos, notes, and the opportunity to help provide school supplies or send a christmas gift each year. Many sponsors also choose to visit the child by going on one of our planned trips to haiti each year.

Activity 3

Building project / earthquake relief - there are several building programs in progress in the community in haiti that we have adopted. Although long term we plan for these building projects to be more focused on facilities needed for the many programs in place, we are currently more focused on helping to rebuild homes for 17 families in our community who have been living in tents since the january 2010 earthquake. These concrete home are affordable, running between 6,000 - 15,000 usd depending upon the size of the home required for the family. Some of our sponsors have had the opportunity to help with fundraising to build a home for the family of the specific child they sponsor, allowing another connection point for the sponsor to the child. In addition to the homes, we (see schedule o) have helped to raise funds for the communities first medical clinic and the first pre-school in the area, both of which are now fully functioning and accessible to the members of the community.
