🇭🇹 Looking back at 2016 and the impact of Hurricane Matthew on Haiti.

The storm brought widespread destruction and food insecurity to many communities. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we were able to provide daily lunches for our students during a time of great need.

A powerful reminder of the strength, resilience, and compassion that carried us through. ❤️

Haitian Flag Day stands as a reminder of courage and sacrifice during the fight for independence, and the powerful unity that helped shape the first free Black republic in the world.

From the Congress of Arcahaie to the victory at Vertières, Haiti’s history continues to inspire generations across the world.

Honoring the strength, culture, and pride of Haiti today and always.

Clean water is not always easy to access, but it changes everything when it is.

Patriote de la Zone recognized that the Vergeon community relied on a mountain spring as their main source of water. Seeing the need, the board spent two years exploring the best solution to make clean water more accessible for both students and the surrounding community.

With the support of partners and the use of the natural mountain source, a water system was built with cisterns and water stations that now serves not just the school, but the entire Vergeon community.

A simple resource, a lasting impact.

“Sometimes, the biggest changes start with simply listening to what a community needs.”

George Milkowski shares how Patriote de la Zone responded to a real need in the Vergeon community and turned it into something meaningful.

This is what purpose-driven action looks like.

💧 Building blocks of hope.

“It’s not enough to stop at education. We have to think about what happens after, and give students the skills they need to build their future.”

George Milkowski shared how Patriote de la Zone continues to grow its mission beyond pre-K to 9th grade.

Many families in the community cannot afford to send their children outside the valley for high school. That is why a two-year vocational program is being introduced, starting with sewing and fashion design.

This program will give students valuable skills, a certification, and a real chance to earn, support their families, and build their future.

Every effort is a step forward. Every step is a building block of hope.
