Modern University of Haiti Nursing

Denise is an intelligent young woman who is determined to build a better future for herself and her family. She always wanted to become a nurse, but she grew up in a poor family in an underprivileged community, and she didn’t know how she would ever realize this dream. However, because of the generosity of Thrive Ansanm donors, she is now in her fourth year studying nursing at Moderne University in Port-au-Prince. As part of her final year, she will be doing a two-month internship in a yet-to-be-assigned part of Haiti. Next, she will complete her final semester, and then begin studying for her government exam so that she can become a licensed nurse. After she gets her license, she would like to specialize in community health.

Education

Education is a step toward a brighter future. However, most families struggle to afford to send their kids to school. When a student is supported through Thrive Ansanm, we cover the cost of their tuition and other school costs, so they can stay in school and succeed.

Technology

Digital access creates opportunity and connection. Most Haitian students don’t have a computer or high-speed internet, but at our resource center local students can access laptops, high-speed internet, and consistent electricity, so they won’t get left behind in today’s digital world.

Mentoring

Mentoring develops the leaders of tomorrow. We match university students with personal mentors who who provide guidance from their experience. These mentors are qualified professionals from the local community, so they understand the unique challenges confronting Haitian students.
