“We are grateful that we can hold onto books and not guns.”
– Children’s Academy Students, Lens & Max

We’d like to share a moment that deeply touched us, a moment captured in the above photo of Children’s Academy friends, Lens & Max. Lens and Max’s joy for learning lights up every classroom they enter.

In a time when too many children in Haiti are surrounded by uncertainty and violence, their words carry tremendous weight. They remind us why your support matters so much. Thanks to you, students like Lens and Max can hold onto books instead of fear. They can grow in confidence, curiosity, and friendship. They can dream of futures full of possibility.

Because of your generosity, they have a safe space to learn, teachers who genuinely care for them, meals that nourish them, and a community that believes in their full potential. They are thankful for the support that makes all of this possible.

On behalf of Lens, Max, their classmates, our teachers, our partner schools, and all of us at Haiti Partners: Thank you for choosing hope. Thank you for choosing education. Thank you for choosing children.

We remain humbled by your partnership and your unwavering belief in a brighter future for Haiti.
