School kits start the year off right.

 

 

Something that is very striking in Haiti is the hunger for education.  When school ends for the day, the streets of the capital are filled with kids in their colorful uniforms.  Education is rightly seen as a way to a better future, but parents struggle to pay the basic costs.  The Lamp supports many children in local schools but this year we decided to extend our help a little further by providing school kits to each of the three schools that are near our clinic.  It was a bright day for those kids and now they are ready to learn!
