Empower Through Literacy
Join Our Mission to Enrich Haitian Education
Help us raise $2,500 to provide essential Haitian Creole books to students, supporting local authors and bookstores in Haiti.
Why Haitian Creole Books Matter
Providing Haitian Creole books to students is crucial for preserving and promoting the language and culture. These books not only enhance literacy but also empower students to connect with their heritage. By supporting local writers and bookstores, we strengthen the cultural fabric and foster a love for learning in their native language.
Kopivit L’action Sociale, RISO Haïti
We are pleased to inform you that the books will be purchased from Kopivit L’Action Sociale, RISO Haïti, a publisher and bookstore based in Haiti. Founded by Edouard A. Tardieu, the business is now owned by Gérard-Marie Tardieu, a Haitian Creole teacher, writer, and founding member of the Haitian Creole Academy.
Where will the funds go?
Every dollar raised will be used to purchase books from Haitian Creole writers and bookstores in Haiti and the U.S.
Why Haitian Creole books?
Haitian Creole books are essential for language learning and cultural preservation. By purchasing most of these books in Haiti, we also support local authors, bookstores, and the Haitian literary community, strengthening the cultural and educational ecosystem. Supporting this initiative ensures access to these valuable resources while fostering a deeper connection to Haitian heritage.
How can I track my donation?
Donors will receive updates on how their contributions are used, including details about the books purchased, and receipts for all book purchases will also be shared. Additionally, each student will post a personal thank-you message, here on this page, once they have received their 10 books.
