Highlight of the Month: February
February: Rachel Bernard visited Anse-a-Pitres in the fall of 2014 with APL. Here’s what she had to say, “My trip with APL to Haiti was an amazing, eye-opening experience! Although this was not my first time in Haiti, each visit to Haiti is a unique learning opportunity. I was able to meet with APL partners and a couple of teachers. Rafael gave me a tour of the town of Anse-a-Pitres, Banane and surrounding villages in the southeastern region. I visited a state hospital, the library project, a public high school, and several elementary schools. When we stopped at the schools, it was wonderful to meet with school administrators and students alike to get their perspectives. It is awe-inspiring how APL, a youth-led organization, is empowering other young people and working to improve education for all in these southeastern communities of Haiti. Keep up the great work APL!”
