Jasmin had a wonderful time
at the Christmas Party held in Jacmel. The party was a partnership
between United Caribbean Trust and Restoration Ministries
Haiti.
It was the conclusion of months of hard work
as hundreds of children in Schools around Barbados packed
shoe boxes for the Make Jesus
Smile project.

Your love gift of US $30 per month goes
into action in several ways.
Here's what your sponsorship could provide
for this little girl:
The wonderful feeling of being loved by a Christian
friend that she has not met, but who cares enough to be a sponsor.
The opportunity to attend pre primary school.
Only 15% of the children in rural Haiti attend school, and fewer
than 25% of adult Haitians are literate.
The first 1/3rd of the fees will go to the primary
school to cover school fees, uniform, shoes etc. This will include
a daily half hour
Early Childhood Education Programme, from 14:00 -
14:30 to be held at Les Tourterelles School.
The next 1/3rd will be invested into a Family
Empowerment Programme enabling the rural family to
purchase livestocks such as goats, chickens, pigs or a cow. For
the urban family the opportunity for sewing machines, trading
and other business opportunities will open for them to enable
them to be self sufficient. US $30 will be invested into a BioSand
Water Filter to provide clean water per household.
The last 1/3rd will go towards funding the After
School Club which is being established at the local
Restoration Ministries Haiti church in Morne Oge. This will include
an afternoon feeding programme and a child educational, character
building evangelical teaching programme which the child can join
as he grows up into the system, flowing from the Bouncing Baby
class into the other After School classes once she joins the Pre
Primary School at age 3.
