Mr. Laguerre remembers, “In spite of our building being destroyed, parents sent their kids to our school. They said: ‘You inspire in us faith, hope and a future for our children.’”
Since it started in 2007, ECCA has grown from 17 students to a current maximum capacity of 220 students. Each year, the school adds a grade level to their classes - currently teaching up to Grade 10. When the new school is completed, the space will provide teachers with the ability to teach even more students!
The new ECCA School is comprised of 10 concrete classrooms in 3 buildings, including a library space and an office space. The classrooms will be earthquake- and hurricane-proof and provide a quiet space for students to learn. We’ve come so far in 2 years of fundraising. By completing ECCA School, we can be an encouragement to staff & students as they work diligently to make Haiti’s future bright.
