We are gathering our supplies together for this upcoming school year.  We have a need for backpacks or book bags for the children. 

We are able to find bags here in Haiti at a low price and are able to help local merchants in our area.

We are in need of around 150 backpacks for this coming school year.  We are currently able to get nice ones for $4.63US a piece.

We will need a total of $694.50 to be able to purchase enough bags to put with those we have to give each child on the sponsorship program a book bag this year.  Each of these children are on the program because their parents are unable to afford their schooling cost for them for the year.  It is a blessing to be able to help so many families in our area.  If you would like to help with this need please use the paypal button in the upper right hand corner of the blog or mail donation into our home office Real Hope for Haiti/P.O. Box 23/Elwood, IN 46036 include a memo or note letting us know it is for “backpacks”.  If you have any questions please email me at licia@realhopeforhaiti.org
