Schools Making A Difference

The first grade class of Hill School (of Middleburg, VA) has adopted the orphans of Kay Anj.

This past January (when the first graders were kindergartners) they collected boxes of art supplies like coloring books, pencils, pens, activity books, erasers, paint, glitter, beads and paper for the kids.

Art & school supplies in Haiti is hard to come by and considered a luxury. Most school’s in Haiti have dirt floors and they provide little in the way of imaginative or inspiring books, supplies and artwork. Most of us grew up learning in classrooms decked out with posters, books, play areas and posters.

Haitian classrooms are much different. Which is why the first graders of Hill School have committed themselves to befriending the orphans of Kay Anj  and have dedicated themselves to help better their quality of life by raising money, having drives and best of all just writing letters to the orphans.

For our upcoming trip in January 2010 the first graders will be making and stuffing Christmas stockings for the orphans of Kay Anj. We are so grateful to the first graders of Hill School for their relentless dedication to HHA and their love of the Kay Ang orphanage! Thank you!
