Beth and I spent quite a bit of time with Pastor Lucien and his wife Roussemie on several trips to Haiti 2016 - 2018. They are the house parents/administrators of the Center of Refuge to Save Unfavored Kids. They have operated the orphanage since 2010 which currently houses and cares for 47 children. They also have six children of their own and run a school and a church.
They are struggling right now because they lost funding from a major donor at the beginning of 2024 and because of the political upheaval and gang-related violence taking place in Haiti.
We are praying that making their needs known will help fill the gap in their funding. They are in need of an additional $1800 per month. If you would like to donate to help feed the children, go here https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=G5P9G985AM7Q4 #.
Donations are tax deductible. BE SURE to WRITE A NOTE IN THE BOX, "For orphanage in Jacmel, Haiti."
In addition, they operate a school and Lucien pastors a local church. He also served as the coordinator for our Timothy Two workshops. See pictures from the orphanage and our workshops below.
