We’re excited to announce that students at IMPA, our Haitian partner school, will be heading back to class ⭐ IMPA is a community pillar in Port au Prince, Haiti that provides education, jobs and stability to hundreds of students and staff.

Every year, IMPA’s reopening depends on the security of the neighborhood to ensure that students and staff are safe. We are grateful to our staff for their dedication to students and are thrilled to be kicking off another year at IMPA 💚
