Dear Friend,
As of this weekend, we've signed the contract with the firm that will construct the first phase of the La Gonave Community Leadership & Development Center! Construction will start on March 20th, and construction will proceed over the following ten months to excavate the site, pour the foundation, and build a retaining wall. Stay tuned for more updates!
About the Center: Roots of Development and Ayiti Community Trust are working together to support our community-based partner in Haiti, Rasin Devlopman, build a permanent community leadership and development center on the island of La Gonave. The center will provide the island’s population (approx. 85,000 residents) with a meeting and training facility where local authorities can strengthen their management and leadership skills and communities can come together to plan and organize sustainable projects that improve quality of life on the island. The facility will also include a guesthouse and additional office space for rent, which will provide Rasin Devlopman with a sustainable source of revenue and greater financial independence.
