LoveLegacy: A community of people who believe brighter futures are possible!

Spread the love

LoveLegacy is for those who have decided to care for some of the world’s most vulnerable. It’s for people who feel a responsibility to their global neighbours and want to help children leave poverty behind.

Does this sound like you? If so, you’re not alone!

As a group of monthly partners, LoveLegacy provides education, nutrition, and freedom to children in the hillside community of Calvaire, Haiti.

By taking care of these children, this group of generous givers are lifting up families and empowering them to create a better future for generations to come!

Wondering what difference a relatively small group of people have been able to accomplish for these children so far?

Here are just a few examples of what we’ve been able to do together over the last ten years:

— We purchased land, built a school, and opened the door to our first class of 70 students in 2011.

— We’ve expanded the footprint of the building and now are teaching over 280 students every day.

— In Haiti, where less than 20% of schools are provided by the government and less than 10% of students receive an education past the primary grades, we’ve paved the way for a generation of children to have access to education all the way through to Grade 9.

— Child malnutrition is widespread throughout Haiti, so we created a daily nutrition program. Since its beginning, we’ve served over 140,000 meals—with every student and staff receiving a nutritious snack and lunch every school day.

— Water is brought into the school for drinking, cooking, sanitation, and cleaning. Living daily in homes without running water or electricity, this is a big deal for these children.

— We’ve helped in all sorts of ways that you might not be top of mind of when thinking about supporting a school—like paying for school uniforms and competitive staff salaries, bringing internet access to the school, and covering things like property taxes, maintenance, security, government academic testing, professional development for teachers, field trips…. And so much more!

Phew! Are you excited? As you can see, there’s a lot we can accomplish when we work together!

The children, their families, and this community need you.

LoveLegacy partners are committed to supporting our efforts in Haiti on a monthly basis through financial support.

There is still a big gap to close to make our work in Haiti sustainable, so we’re asking people to take a leap of faith and commit to monthly giving over a one-time donation.

“I think education is very important. I love Ecole L’Union. I am grateful for all the benefits/privileges my children and all the kids have at the school. You have no idea how happy us parents are because of all that the school does for our children. The meals the school serves help us tremendously with keeping our children healthy.”
