ARCF Is Changing The Life Of Those With No Hope
Combating Poverty…
One Classroom at a Time !
Many Haitian parents who live in poverty, are unable to feed their children, so with broken hearts, they give them away to more affluent families, hoping that their child will live in better conditions, and obtain an education. But, with few exceptions, these children work as domestic servants, working in the homes of their “masters” from early morning till night. Many of them are not permitted to go to school and are exposed to domestic and sexual violence.
It’s 300,000 children with names, families hope and dreams. When confronted with the reality, we must respond. This is not someone else’s crisis…it’s all of ours. That’s why our key investment is in the children themselves. These children possess stunning resilience and untapped intelligence and creativity. These are the harsh, life-and-death issues that have brought these children to At Risk school program with benefits they may never otherwise receive.
