APJ School Construction
APJ is very excited to have broken ground on our new campus and we are getting ready to open the 7th Grade. Amazingly, this is the first free middle and high school ever to serve the children of the largest slum in the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. We will welcome 200 7th graders to our APJ secondary school as we continue construction on the remainder of the campus. Our immediate goal is to build this school for grades 7-13, serving approximately 1400 students, with the highest standards of functional design and safety, that utilizes solar and wind energy, includes an amphitheater, a basketball court, and an edible garden. We will incorporate training in the arts, film, music and computers in addition to vocational programs such as agriculture, accounting and medical assistance. APJ believes that education is crucial for sustainable recovery. By providing a safe place to learn, two meals a day, and clean water, together we are investing in the children of Haiti and providing them with the tools that will benefit Haiti in the long term.
In order to sustain our above mission we need major financial contributions and your financial support for our school and it will be a fantastic opportunity to bring the spotlight back on the people of Haiti were there is still so much to be done. Want to make a difference? Then donate here to help the kids of Haiti get an education.
