For the children who cross this bridge to reach school, this footbridge is more than steel and concrete. It is the path to their classroom, their friends, and their future. For too long, they crossed a bridge with holes beneath their feet. Today, that's changed.
ADF Haiti is proud to announce that the footbridge repair is complete. 💙
This story begins with Ferel Bruno, who built the original bridge and gave this community a way across. Years later, others chose to protect what he started by doing a renovation:
🤝 HCDF, our lead funding partner, who believed in this project
🤝 Emerson and Haiti Projects, for their generous financial support
🤝 Engineer Madere Higens, who volunteered his time and technical expertise
Each of them gave something different, and together it added up to something that will carry children safely to school for years to come.
To everyone who had a hand in this: thank you. 🙏
One project. Many partners. One shared result.

Pou timoun ki travèse pon sa a pou y al lekòl, se pa sèlman yon pon an fè ak beton. Se chemen ki mennen yo nan klas yo, bò kote zanmi yo, ak nan lavni yo. Pandan twòp tan, yo te konn travèse yon pon ki te gen twou anba pye yo. Jodi a, sa chanje.
ADF Haiti fyè pou l anonse reparasyon pasrèl la fini.
Istwa sa a kòmanse ak Ferel Bruno, ki te bati premye pon an epi bay moun nan kominote a yon kote pou yo travèse. Plizyè ane apre, nou chwazi an ekip pou prezève sa li te kòmanse a lè nou te fè renovasyon pon an:
HCDF, patnè prensipal nou pou finansman an, ki te kwè nan pwojè sa a.
Emerson ak Haiti Projects, pou sipò finansman yo te bay ak tout kè yo.
Enjenyè Madere Higens, ki te bay tan li ak konesans teknik li kòm volontè.
Chak moun ak chak òganizasyon te pote yon kontribisyon diferan. Ansanm, kontribisyon sa yo bay yon pon ki pral pèmèt timoun yo ale lekòl an sekirite pandan plizyè ane k ap vini yo.
Pou tout moun ki te mete men nan travay sa a: mèsi.
Yon sèl pwojè. Plizyè patnè. Yon rezilta nou reyalize ansanm.
