As you know Haiti is reeling on all fronts.  Whether it is food, sanitation, water, medical attention or shelter, hundreds of thousands are clamoring for help. Right now larger government and non-government agencies are working on getting relief supplies to Port au Prince while, at the same time, working on finding survivors.  Quite frankly, this is an endeavor best left to such agencies as USAID, the Red Cross, the military, Doctors Without Borders and the like.  These agencies can serve large scale operations calling for planes, security, airlifts, ships, operating rooms and the like.  Schools Count is not able to accomplish such tasks.

When the dust settles and the port re-opens Schools Count Corp will build a ten-room school.  At this time, 52.9% of the population is illiterate according to the World Fact Book.  Jobs and education have to be re-established to fight poverty and to provide the means for Haiti to get back on its feet.  A school of this size will cost in excess of $50,000.  We'll not only build a school but Schools Count Corp. will provide supplies and aid in the continued cost of operating the school in the years to come.

Your tax deductible donation will go a long way towards reaching our goal of building a school in Haiti.  Too many orphans and far too many illiterate children need our help and we will build this school in order to enable children to see a brighter day and more hopeful future.

Please make your contribution and kindly indicate "Haiti School" as the designated fund.  Also, should you have an awareness of other types of assistance that may be available, related to this project, please contact me at richard@schoolscountcorp.org. 

Schools Count Corp is always looking for donations and volunteers.
