Haiti - Cavaillon
Cavaillon is located in a flat plain region of southwestern Haiti on the road to Les Cayes, approximately 100 miles from Port-au-Prince. The e=h program is located in Anotte, a rural area a few rocky and dusty miles outside of Cavaillon. More than 90% of people in Anotte live on less than $1 USD per day with no electricity, indoor plumbing, sewage systems or medical facilities, and limited access to clean water.
SCHOOL BUDGET & SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
e=h funds the teacher/staff salaries, furnishings and building needs of the budget for Ecole St Esprit, a private school with over 300 students in Kindergarten through Secondary School.
e=h also offers a sponsorship program to orphaned students pursuing higher education or vocational school. Financial assistance is provided for tuition, fees, uniforms, housing and other critical needs. These orphans have no means to help them pay education expenses. Each year 10 or more students receive this support.
SCHOOL FEEDING PROGRAM
It has been reported that the level of food availability in Haiti is one of the lowest in the world. 1 in 5 Haitian children are malnourished. It is difficult or impossible for children to learn when they are hungry.
At our sponsored school, Ecole Sainte Esprit in Cavaillon, our feeding program serves a hot meal each school day for approximately 350 students and staff of our sponsored community. For many of these children this is the only meal they will receive that day.
