Thank you for making our Holiday Matching Campaign a success.
We met the match!
YOU can give HOPE to students, families & communities in Haiti
Your holiday gift brings hope to students like Rebecca, an 11th grader at the Children’s Academy (pictured top right above). Despite ongoing gang violence that has claimed dozens of lives over the past year, the Children’s Academy and our Partner Schools have remained open—providing a safe, nurturing environment where students can continue to learn, grow, and thrive.
During this season of hope and compassion, we invite you to invest in inspiring students like Rebecca as we work to raise $100,000 to sustain this critical work. There has never been a better time to give, because:
- YOUR GIFT WILL BE MATCHED $1 FOR $1
- 100% OF DONATIONS WILL GO TO PROGRAMS
Thank you for providing hope to students, families, and communities in Haiti!

& DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT
Rebecca is the kind of student who reminds us why The Children’s Academy exists. Despite everything she faces at home, she never gives up. She fights for her education.
