Give Jameson a year of school

A microproject by International Disaster Volunteers (IDV)
Give Jameson a year of school

Summary

This project will provide a full year of education for Jameson. Jameson is 12 years old and came to the HTDC orphanage when his mom moved to Port-au-Prince to work as a maid. Although his mom works hard Jameson can't live with her, and she can't afford to send him to school. So he stays at the orphanage where he loves to help with the cooking! With your help, we'll be able to provide Jameson with the education he needs to build a secure future.

Challenge

As an orphan, Jameson is among the most vulnerable of Haitian children. There are no free schools in Port au Prince available, so the orphanage must pay for the kids in its care to attend school. Lack of education locks kids like Jameson into a cycle of poverty. Ensuring access to school not only helps Jameson, but strengthens Haitian communities in the long-term.

Solution

Jameson has lived his whole life in poverty. He needs a quality education to find a prosperous future. Your donations will give him that education and set him on the road to a brighter tomorrow.

Long-Term Impact

Access to education will give Jameson the skills he needs to find a stable job and escape poverty when he's older.
