Destined for Grace has made it their goal to provide an education to children in Mirebalais, Haiti.  Our goals have become a reality as we travel to Haiti multiple times in a year.

1st Grade Class

Ecole Destined For Grace opened its doors to 125 K-4th grade students on October 3rd for the 2011/2012 school year. Destined for Grace is able to fund the school through student sponsorships, for $115 a year you can help a child go to school.  We charge $1 a month for students to attend school.  The rest of the cost is covered though US sponsorships.  We require the families to pay a small fee so that they feel involved and take ownership of their child’s education.  All students have been sponsored for the current school year!  There are many other programs and improvements that we would like to start at the school so financial support is always welcomed.

Our current project is improvements to our kitchen.  Our school is blessed to be able to provide a meal each day for our students.  For many students it is the only meal they will receive.  The kitchen our 3 cooks use to prepare the food needs a lot of work.  If you would like to make a donation to our food program or kitchen repair project please make not of it in the memo line of your check.

Destined For Grace currently owns about four acres of property outside of Mirebalais (pictured above). We have planted mango and plantain trees on the land, with plans to plant more trees including lemon and grapefruit along with beans and peanuts.  Currently, potatoes are being grown on our property for our student lunches.
