School Benches, Tables, and Chairs
 
    Every child has the right to an education. To learn, to dream, to plan for an amazing future. It is the same in every country in the world. An education is the beginning to a brighter future, for yourself as well as your family.
     In Haiti,  an education even has more meaning, as it often is the difference in succeeding, or being held back from a better future. But in Pastor Wilma's school, the ability to sit to learn has been hampered by furniture that is way past it prime. Broken chairs, chipped benches, and tottering tables make learning hard.
      This year, we were lucky enough to host a fundraising event, with the money going to create some new furniture to be used in the school. We want to thank you so much for your donation, and we hope that we can continue to assist our friends whenever possible.

Many bench seatings are broken and not safe to use.
