Project Report | Jan 25, 2022
Schools as a safe refuge in times of uncertainty

By Jana Gottschalk | Project Leader

Dear supporter,
We hope you could start the new year off right and are excited to share some news from the project in Haiti with you: 

Haiti has been through a very turbulent year, and has demanded a great deal in terms of flexibility from the school teams, the children and their families. Throughout the year, our local partner ensured that lessons were still continuing, even if that meant higher precautions such as leaving the school outfit at home, guards at the school doors or changed routes for the approximately 600 children. Parents and staff members are doing everything in their power to ensure that the schools constitute a safe refuge for the kids despite the many crises that Haiti has to cope with. A place where they can still be children and learn and relax.

Food Crisis in Haiti

Due to high inflation, the earthquake and the ongoing political unrest food prices are increasing ever since 2019, making it ever harder to obtain a healthy nutrition. Unfortunately, the food situation for the children at our schools is thus worsening, which is why we are ever so thankful for your support. 

Project Contest 

We at PEN PAPER PEACE ourselves are starting off the new year with a contest aimed at all young people who want to make a change in this world. We welcome any creative ideas on how to make the world a little bit better. The contest is organized by the FutureLab, a group of young volunteers within PEN PAPER PEACE. If you have an idea for a project or know someone that would be interested in participating, we would be delighted to receive an application until the end of February. For further information please consult: https://www.pen-paper-peace.org/unterstuetzen/zeit-spenden/future-lab.html - the site will soon be updated. 

New beginnings

We even have more great news to share: PEN PAPER PEACE officially welcomes a new Managing Director: We are beyond happy and excited to introduce to you Inka Lange who starts in February! Sadly, this also means that we will have to say goodbye to Jana Gottschalk, who deserves our utmost gratitude and respect for the fantastic job and unimaginable service she has rendered PPP in the past almost four years. 

If you would like to stay updated on all of our projects, we cordially invite you to register for our newsletter. All updates from our project in Haiti as well as any other updates will regularly be covered so that you will never miss out on what is going on at PEN PAPER PEACE. Simply fill in your name and email address at www.pen-paper-peace.org in the upper right corner. 

We are hopeful for a great year ahead and hope that you will be a part of it!

With the kindest regards, 

The entire team of PEN PAPER PEACE
