The Children of the Mountains is about our efforts to support education in the mountainous community of Fond Verrettes and the community of Robio. In this Smielbox made in 2010, we feature the two schools that are determined to bring literacy to these little ones whose lives have been subjected to extreme poverty and deprivation of even the most basic things.

Dr. Judy Fisher — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 06:14:24 +0000

Solar Energy has come to three schools in three mountains of Fond Verrettes and Robio. Three Haitians were trained how to use the Global Solar Oven in Port-au-Prince at the Solar Energy Program in September 2011. They returned home and immediately began teaching the others how to use the ovens. MOM provided 6 new Global ovens for them. Six ovens were placed in our schools that we support in Fond Verrettes and Robio. Baked bread will be served to the children at lunctime along with some juice. For some, this will be there only meal for the day. The children are extremely poor and Pastor Sylvio is asking for help to feed them nutritious meals each day. We certainly can use your help. Please view the SmileBox and let the need of thre children speak to your heart. The next time you eat a fastfood meal, I hope you will remember the kids who are hungry. [...]
