Thursday

Today Eric, Francois and I (megan) met with Carine, director of Fonkoze. It was a great meeting! We were able to get some answers, fill in some blanks and share our vision of our partnership. We really seem to be on the same page as far as what we want to see happen. Leve Project will be a Ti Kredi center. Our center will have 50 (they will be put into small groups of 5) women enrolled that will all go through the cycle of the program together. Usually, a Ti Kredi program consists of several "centers", adding up to 200 women. We'll be starting with the one center, piggy backing with a larger Ti Kredi program in the area. This is a great opportunity to kick-off our partnership with Fonkoze!!

Once our center is fully funded, we will be able to start enrollment. The cost of the program is $140 per women, making the total cost for our initial center $7,000. Be on the look-out, we'll be sharing more about Family Sponsorships and how you can be a part of empowering Haitian families!
