Who will you be helping when you give to HaitiScholarships? Haitian students who otherwise would be unable to attend school. Continuing our series where we can meet some of the applicants that we hope to pay some of their tuition:
Meet Thermidor who volunteers in Leogane with AllHands and would like to go to a trade school to become an electrician:
“I’ve been an orphan since I was 16 years old. Since my mother died I did not have anybody to help me with my education but I made efforts to go to school. I already finish my secondary school but I did not have the mean to learn something else. I want to be technician in electricity.
[Thanks to AllHands] I do a lot experiences in my life for example working in rubble, hygiene promotion, building school and so on.
With the [help I hope to] receive from HaitiScholarships I will be good at electricity so that I can participate in the reconstruction of my country. When I finish…I can electrify my community because we can not talk about development without electrifying…..
This scholarship is going to help me to have an impact in quality of the life in Haiti because I’ll have the opportunity to go school; I will learn something that can [be] good for Haiti.
