Sponsor a child’s education for just $475.00

In June 2016, Family Support Circle, Inc. launched a year-long educational program in Haiti to serve children from pre-K through high school. The program officially started during the 2016-2017 school year, and we are now proudly in our ninth year (2024-2025). 

The school operates Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM, with an after-school homework support program from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM. During the summer, the school provides a Summer Enrichment Program to keep students engaged and learning.

Currently, the school is operating in a church building, where day-to-day instruction takes place. Despite limited resources, the school provides a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and receive the support they need to thrive.

For many students, the meals provided at school are the only ones they will eat all day. Without this program, many of these children would go hungry during the summer months when traditional school sessions end.

OUR VISION FOR FSC INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

To uphold our mission to “provide the type of support services that moves towards an ever improving quality of life centered in a healthy and diverse community,” we must create space for our expanding after school and summer programs, youth development classes, food program and educational offerings. This new school building will include a full-size kitchen, a multi-purpose stage, an outdoor play area, new classrooms, and more.

The total amount to build the school is $75,000, $7,000 for furniture/desk/table and $4,000 for other supplies and materials. This gives us a grand total of $86,000 to complete the school building and programs. However, we anticipate that once the building is completed, we will continue to need support to help with operational costs and miscellaneous expenses to maintain the facility.

Donations and support received thus far have helped to ensure future success for FSC’s International School by allowing us to make upgrades or renovations in our current housing situation that will impact present and future students.  However, in order to expand our programs and educational offerings in Haiti, we require support beyond our standard operational budget.
