It aims to give them God-fearing character and biblical truth and inspire them to live learning, leadership, and service lives. Its vision is to transform lives through Christian education. We were ready to start the school year. However, unrest in Haiti prevented schools from opening in the fall of 2022. In January 2023, we started the program with 33 students. There were 16 kindergartners and 17 first graders. One student did not return because he had moved to another area. The returning students came from two communities: Demontreuil and Site Beaudouin. They lived in those communities. Their parents were victims of the 2010 earthquakes and are very poor. Most of these children need access to quality schools. Even those who started in a bad school had to return home. Their parents couldn't afford the small tuition. We realized the key to a Christian school's success is its staff. We looked for and hired qualified candidates who love children. They are Christian role models based on the patterns of their lives. Even though they received formal training, these teachers continued to use outdated methodologies. Marie is a native of Haiti and the organizations president. She spent the school year in Haiti coaching the teachers. Marie graduated from an American university with a masters degree in education. She also received advanced training in special education. We hired a cook, a custodian, and an administrative assistant. We also contracted the services of a security firm and a transportation company. 20793 28767 28767 Marie Chery President 40.00 0 Frantz Gabeau Secretary 2.00 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false OR Marie Chery 137 Mackin Ave Eugene OR 97404 8474010049 false true OC false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 25280 98014 28470 151764 0 0 0 0 25280 98014 28470 151764 0 0 151764 0 0 0 0 25280 98014 28470 151764 X 0.00000 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.1 Class of Activity: Education support | Donee's Name: Lionel Chery- Haiti Jacmel Haiti | Relationship of Donee: Affiliated organization | Cash Amount Given: $20793 Other Expenses.1005 Travel $779 Other Expenses.1009 Depreciation $4335 Other Expenses.1 Dues & Subscriptions $2031 Other Expenses.2 Program Supplies $829 Other Expenses.3 Merchant Fees $570 Other Expenses.4 License and registration fees $50 Other Expenses.5 Bank Charges and Fees $45 Other Assets.1003 Machinery and Equipment - Beginning $24086 Machinery and Equipment - Ending $19751 Other Assets.1007 Receivables-Officers, Directors, Etc. - Beginning $5155 Receivables-Officers, Directors, Etc. - Ending $0
