FCL Updates: Haitian Students Inspire Hope

Recent projects in Haiti have included a training for a school in the mountaintop village Bois de Avril (April Woods). The community of parents, teachers and villagers quickly embraced a vision of service and transformation in this town. In the first service project, students learned counting, sorting, colors and recycling by cleaning up their community and turning trash into mosaics to promote cleanliness. 

Meanwhile, in the city of Port au Prince, CAFT sponsored a training for 20 educators, NGO workers and teacher trainers from various agencies. Some schools received presentations and related activities from the Girls United anthology.
