On August 5th, Bright Hope Staff helped package, load and ship a container to Haiti. En route as we speak are: 100,000 meals for a school feeding program, notebooks and pencils for all 2,500 students and that is just for the students!

The schools (a total of 17 this year!) will receive chalkboard paint, a large supply of chalk, along with markers and crayons and that is just for the schools. 89 Bikes were added to the shipment as motivation for the Teachers. All of these gifts will greatly increase the quality of education the students will receive.

But the work isn’t finished yet. We still need help to pack 270,000 MORE meals to go to Haiti.

To be apart of an amazing experience clear your schedules for October 22-25.

Details to follow!
