According to Fr. Jadotte: “The children in Haiti will never eat everyday.”
The Haiti Project at Riviere’ Mancelle is a program supported by the Salvatorian Community. St. Joseph Parish has supported this project durng Lent for several years. Donations will be accepted throughout the Lenten season and will be forward directly to the Haiti Project in Alexandia, TN.
They estimate they will be able to feed one child, for 111 days of this school year, for $80.00 annually. This is a complete protein diet and will help combat the severe malnutrition we witnessed among the children while we were there. Their goal is to provide 1500 meals a day. This will feed 1200 school children, staff, and malnourished individuals referred by the clinic. 100% of all funds will be used for purchasing the food and supplies to prepare the lunches.
Other expenses are funded separately.
You may sponsor one child for one year for $70. This includes books, tuition and uniforms. You may also support the luncheon program for $80 for one child for one year.
