Education - Fully Funded!

Standley is a passionate young man who is studying education science. He believes that teaching is one of the most important professions, but one that is often overlooked, and this is one of his motivations for pursuing this path. He’s so intelligent that he scored number one on the placement exams for the University of the Renaissance in Jeremie, but neither of his parents has consistent employment, and his mom is losing her vision, so his family didn’t have the resources to send him to college. However, now he will be able to achieve his dream of graduating from college and one day impacting countless other young lives through his teaching.

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.
