We work together with Haitian communities to design and fund educational programs empowering children and building the next generation of skilled Haitian women and men. We partner with 2 schools and 1 orphanage. We also have helped building a whole school, other classrooms, playground, vegetable garden...Because of extremely dangerous situation in Haiti, we could not visit the schools in 2022. However we kept in contact every week through virtual calls and text messages. In April 2022, we traveled to the Dominican Republic. We met the head of schools and staff of the orphanage at the border of Haiti and DR and had a day of meetings with them. 0 0 65508 0 Educational programs at " College Mixte Marius Carnold" school:a school with 500 students from preschool to 12 grade in Fond Parisien in the Ganthier area.Our partnership started in 2012 after the earthquake. In 10 years the student body grew from 80 to around 500 students in 2022. Objectives: we send funds to pay teacher salaries and staff. If there is a paid teacher in the classroom, students can receive an education for free. This allows students to go to school regardless their ability to pay the tuition. In 2022, we increased the salary amount because of the increase of food and gas cost in Haiti. A teacher earns around $300 per month. in 2022 Konekte also sent funds to allow the school to distribute food to teachers during the COVID crisis, to buy tables and chairs for new students and to buy and install solar panels to enable the school not to depend on the Haitian. 65438 0 Educational programs at "College Mixte La Référence de Ganthier" school: partnership since 2013 at the creation of the school with 2 classes in 2013 ( 40 students in 7th and 8th grade). Over the years, Konekte sent funds to build a new school campus, in two phases, adding 12 more classrooms to the 6 classrooms already built in 2019. This allows the school to open preschool and elementary school classes and a library, a small cafeteria. In October 2022, the school had around 500 students. Konekte also sent funds to transform one classroom into a computer/library room, to buy computers, to fund teacher training in the Summer, to buy tables and chairs for new students. Konekte also sent funds to build a dormitory above the cafeteria, for teachers to stay overnight. Because of the very violent situation with gangs kidnapping and robbing people, teachers are afraid to go back and forth to and from school. The dormitory allows between 10 and 15 teachers to stay the whole week. The school is offering the best education in the area in a beautiful environment favorable to learning. The school received highest awards for sensitivity to educational mission, to community and sustainability. Also the school was one of the very few ( the other one was the other school Konekte is supporting), remaining open in the area despite everything happening. Students find a safe place to go and to learn. 18800 0 Konekte sent funds to allow children from "la Maison d'enfants" orphanage to go to school. Sponsors send $650 per year to allow one child to go to La Référence school. In 2022, there are around 40 kids in this orphanage. As of now only 20 are sponsored but we will work hard to find more sponsors for the other 20/30 younger children. The orphanage and Konekte send regular updates about the work and grades and activities the children are doing. 4011 0 Trip to the DR to have meetings at the border of DR and Haiti with the heads of schools and the staff of the orphanage.
