A Message from the Director

A call for support from Kids Connection Haiti - very soon I will give you an update of all the exciting projects KCH is involved in. Besides sponsors, we are always grateful for general contributions, which will help us put young people in school and start them on the path to self-empowerment and a sustainable life. Please read on:

Dear Supporter of Kids Connection Haiti,

Just over one year ago, a tremendous earthquake rocked Haiti, killing 250.00 people and devastating millions of lives. Now, one year later, the people in Haiti are still suffering from the devastation. A million people still live in tent cities, in unsafe, unhealthy and impoverished conditions. Unemployment is widespread. Natural disasters, an on-going cholera epidemic and political unrest make for insecurity and violence. The Haitian people still need your support. Only with sustainable support will Haiti do better.

Kids Connection Haiti is addressing the very need of sustained support. We are preparing young adults for a financially stable future, so that they can, in turn, reach out to a younger generation and establish a safer, more stable future for themselves and their communities. Our young adults are the next community leaders, the next managers, even the next politicians. With good education, self-confidence and respect for others, they can help improve Haiti.

Please consider being a part of this important change. Kids Connection Haiti needs sponsors to ensure continuity in the educational program that we offer. The sponsorship of a young adult will cost you no more than $25 per month. With your monthly contribution, a young adult can finish school, learn a profession or trade and create stability in her life and the lives of others around her. You will receive semi-annual  progress reports and a picture of the person you are sponsoring

Are you willing to share $25 each month to help a Haitian person establish a better life?

Please sign up now!  To do so, just reply to this e-mail with your name and address and you will be assigned a student in need and receive detailed information about our sponsorship program. 

Thank you so much for your continuous support.

Sincerely,

Astrid Fitzgerald
