Children

Educated children are the future of Haiti. Yet, only a small percentage of children in Haiti have the opportunity to go to school. For many families, it’s cost prohibitive, especially in the secondary grades. HCO tries to remove as many barriers as possible and provide opportunities to educate the next generation of children.

HCO’s Emmanuel Christian Schools provide excellent educational and spiritual training. Through child sponsors, we are able to educate nearly 2,000 students each year.

We share stories about our Children and about Every Child on our blog to show the impact of sponsorships and celebrate how God is doing something for Haiti that will last through our schools and ministry to children.

All HCO schools are called Emmanuel Christian School, followed by the community name. Each consists of Pre-K through 6th grade, except for Port-au-Prince which has classes through 12th grade. In addition to students enrolled in our schools, we also support a number of students from the villages to attend high school in the Jacmel area. We have schools in these locations (color coded to boxes on map below):

  • Grand Bois (2011)
  • Kapotyer (2009)
  • Peredo (2009)
  • Drouillard (2002)
  • Seguin (1996)
  • Port-au-Prince (1990)

Every Child sponsorshipsHCO_EveryChild_Logo allow you to partner with our schools to educate, evangelize, equip, empower, and encourage our students.

Become a Child Sponsor

Want to do more?
You can host a Child Sponsorship Day at your church or organization! This is a special day for people to learn about our children and choose an individual child to sponsor. Promote the special day a few weeks in advance so that people come prepared to participate.

Sponsors can choose their own child’s photo and take the child’s photo profile home with them right away!
