Our Initiatives
campJacob
campJacob removes the barriers of campers' day-to-day lives that are restricted due to lack of accessibility, educational opportunities, social stigma and funding. The camp program provides life skills and self-care training that builds confidence and inspires independent thinking.
Lekòl Nou
Lekòl Nou was developed to provide an education for children who are visually impaired, blind, hard of hearing or deaf in the Port-au-Prince region of Haiti — helping them realize their full potential as intelligent, creative and whole beings.
