Education and Advocacy
The power of a uniform.
In Haiti education is not free. It's not a right, but a privilege - a privilege most restavek children will never experience. When we help restavek children get into school, we are not just providing them with an education, but with a sense of dignity. Going to school means for once they are just like the rest of the kids - they are part of a community.
Haiti
The rich historic past of Haiti has eroded over the years.
Today the country that won its independence through a successful slave rebellion, now has a population fighting to survive. In 1925, Haiti was lush, with 60% of its original forest covering the lands and mountainous regions. Since then, the population has cut down all but an estimated 2% of its original forest cover, resulting in massive flooding and the destruction of fertile farmland.
