#riboyshome 2019-2020 school year

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world"




nelson mandella said it best, right?

education is one of the MOST important things for our boys.

haiti's literacy rate is 61% & did you know that school is costly to most. with the average income being $1793.55 it is a heavy burden for most parents, but still they fight. we all fight because we know even with the best education life is still incredibly difficult. with education comes knowledge & knowledge comes power. we are responsible to give our boys a fighting chance to make the very best life for themselves & their future families. we have the amazing chance to give them everything they need to succeed & everything we pour into them they get the chance to pour into others.

with that being said we are already planning for our boys 2019-2020 school year!


makendy 2019 - he made the highest grade in the whole house, schooling 85%. we are so incredibly proud. 

with everything we do we depend on our donors. we are so very thankful for each donation. with all the turmoil in haiti it has been very difficult raising funds this year. even with the government issues in haiti life is still going on. there are still needs to be met. would you consider sponsoring one of our boys for the school year?

alix just gave us fees for their school year:

tuition: $300 for each child
uniforms: $350 for all uniforms including fee to make all uniforms
books & materials: $50 each child
sports: $50 each month

$4250 total for their school year

                                                    TOGETHER WE CAN DO IT

all of these faces are why we do what we know God has called us to do. we don't make a dime with our non-profit for ourselves. every penny goes to these boys. their home, their food & water, their education. we want to do more than just meet the basic needs for them. you might not be able to get to haiti but you can help is. pray with us that their story gets in the right hands to be able to help us provide for them. SHARE our page & our posts to greater our reach. donate what you can. every donation counts, matters & is appreciated. 

blessings,

a HOME for our boys.

YOU GUYS! i am so excited to give you some details on our boys home. we have started an "adopt a box" & made a beautifully awkward video about it HERE i wanted to write a post to give you some details! SO. we need to have this box filled by 3 weeks! why 3 weeks? so we have enough time to get the house prepared, get beds, a stove, sheets, towels, all of the things a little house will need. the boys need to have the house ready by june. so we are in a time CRUNCH! we will have a house mom that will live there & take care of them everyday. they will get all the meals they need, they will have someone to make sure they brush their teeth, do their homework, study for their test, read their bible, say their prayers ALL the things kids are so deserving of & most do not get. all of these boys do not have family that can take them in or we would work towards that. we don't want them to get lost in the system or live in the streets. HELP us HELP them. can you ...

haiti june 2019.

FINALLY! i spent a long weekend with the boys & it was SO NEEDED. they have grown so much & i was so insanely happy to see them. not in a photo or video but with my own eyes. let me just tell you getting there was something else. 8 months since my feet were on haitian soil & if you know me you know that is a LONG TIME. the day cory took me to the airport i accidentally left my phone in the car, the incredible ticket agent allowed me to use her phone to call him (insert praise hands) on his way home our car went crazy & stopped right in front of a library so he just coasted in (insert praise hands again). he is literally on the phone with me telling me everything as I am about to board the plane, i was like get behind me devil. an uber driver, a good friend, a tow truck, cory's step dad & an alternator later the car was good to go. when i walked into the house my heart was just overcome with thankfulness. yes we still need to raise $4000 before august ...
