Backpacks for Haiti!

GDE Haiti is in need of full backpacks to take to the children in Massey in August.  We currently have 40 children in our program and hope to take down 60 filled backpacks!  Any backpacks over and above the number of children in the program will be given to other school children in the area to give them a head-start on their school year.  Want to get involved?  Here's more details!

Please pack a NEW solid blue or solid black backpack with the following supplies:
  • 12 blue pens
  • 12 regular #2 pencils
  • Small pencil sharpener
  • 3 normal erasers
  • Basic Calculator OR pack of basic-colored crayons
  • Pack of girls OR boys underwear
  • Pack of white crew socks   
To arrange to drop off a filled backpack or have it picked up, please contact Christy Freemyer at christyfreemyer@graindespoirhaiti.com.
