As students across the U.S. return to school this week, families in Grand‑Bois, Cornillon, Haiti are preparing for their own academic year, which typically begins in late September or early October.

Rural mountain communities often face delays due to weather, transportation, and resource limitations — but the commitment to education remains strong. Local schools serve hundreds of children each year despite limited infrastructure and challenging terrain. With support from partners and community organizations like ServeHAITI, these schools continue to provide essential access to learning. ServeHAITI’s Health Center supports students with vaccinations, wellness checks, and treatment for common illnesses — helping ensure they start the school year healthy and ready to learn. Alongside our clinic work, ServeHAITI has invested deeply in education across Grand‑Bois through our Teacher Training Program, which strengthened schools throughout the region. We’ve also helped rebuild local schools and improve learning environments so students have safe, functional spaces to learn. Our team continues to provide school supplies to children who often begin the year without the basics — notebooks, pencils, backpacks, and hygiene essentials. Your support makes education possible in Grand‑Bois. If you’d like to help students start the school year healthy, prepared, and confident, consider joining our monthly giving community and support our education programs. Every contribution strengthens a child’s future and the entire Grand‑Bois community. www.givebutter.com/servehaiti-donate-now
