Educational Donations needed for Sionfonds projects

Educational Sponsorships


For the last 4 years with the help of many kind and generous sponsors, Sionfonds sent hundreds of Haitian children to school. The need is great and it is hard to keep up with all the tuitions we pay. Any donations you can make will be greatly appreciated, we stretch every penny to educate as many children as possible.


Sionfonds, has two schools that we administer, one in Gaviollon near La Cayes and one in Masson in the mountains beyond Pettionville. Sionfonds also pays the tuition of 100’s of children in and around the village of Belle Anse.

In the areas we work there are no public schools, no electricity no services or help available to families wishing to send their children to school.


For $130 a year you can send a child to school for one year. The child will receive tuition, a school uniform and school supplies. You will receive information and a picture of the child you are sponsoring. You can choose what age student, you want to sponsor and if the student is a boy or girl.

You will also have the option of helping the family to become more self-sufficient. Sionfonds will send you our bi-annual Newsletters and sometimes art work or report cards from the child you sponsor.

Here is a link, to a clip from msnbc.  It exemplifies exactly what we are trying to prevent, what you prevent with your donations to Sionfonds educational sponsorships. Your donation is helping rural kids to stay with their families and go to school in their communities. Children in our program do not have to leave their families and go to work in the cities so they can go to school.  Sionfonds is dedicated to keeping families together.

Thank you so much for your continued support of Sionfonds educational sponsorship and community improvement programs.   

As always, our need for donations to fund our educational and community projects is great, please share this with your friends and family. Encourage them to help the families and children of Haiti.

Educational Donations needed for Sionfonds projects

About donations; it is easiest due to the difficulty of shipping, to send money to Haiti rather than goods. However we participate in sending a container to Haiti once a year and at that time we need shoes, bigger items, like sewing machines, and the other school supplies listed below. Check back here for notification of when container shipments are scheduled. Donations of funds we accept gratefully anytime and send to Haiti ASAP.
