There are lot of complaints in the streets of Haiti because many Haitian parents do not have money in their pockets and school is not cheap in Haiti.

Often times, school opens in Haiti and many shool children odo not go to school on time due to lack of money in the pockets of the parents.

We had a chance to speak to a parent in the neighborhood, a security guard with only one daughter. luck him, his 11,000 gourdes "lajan sòl" came at the right time, right before school opens. more than half of it was deposited to a bank account belonging to a local school for "2 versement de frais scolaire" (2 installments of school fees) the other half is being spent on school uniforms etc...

We know of another Haitian parent with 4 children who is going nuts right now because neither his nor his wife are employed and they have 4 children to send back to school this year.

Hmmm...

What do you think about that?
