The previous Education for Prosperity newsletter announced a new fund-raising program designed to ensure stable funding to pay Lekol Pa Nou teachers and to demonstrate positive, personal connections between people in Haiti and North America.
The school's eight teachers each earn $100 per month for an 11 month period, which includes a summer camp program. We invite our North American collaborators to partner with Lekol Pa Nou staff by paying a teacher's salary. It could be for three months, six months or the full 11 months. That is up to you.

We would like to personalize this connection, with your permission, by printing your name, a photograph, and a little bit about you in the next newsletter, along side one of the teachers. Furthermore, when we visit Pichon this summer we would like to take a photograph of you to present to the school. This will help us in "making relationships visible" for our valued Pichon colleagues, as well. We want them to be able to see their North American collaborators.
Loulou and Nadia Balthazar, who provide administration and oversight for activities in Pichon, emailed the photos of Lekol Pa Nou staff shown in this newsletter. They apologized for the quality explaining that they had to use "ID badge" pictures because of technical difficulties with their digital camera. Be assured that you would see radiant, smiling faces if you were to meet them in person! We are grateful to the Balthazars for getting these pictures to share with you.
