Children attending the tuition-free classes
Sometimes, a rural family can not afford to feed all their children. They may send one or more of their children to work for relatives in Port-a-Prince. If the children are lucky, they will have a sheltering home and food in exchange for their work. The Sisters offer the servant children in Cite Militaire and Cite Solei a free education through 4th grade during the afternoons. It starts with a hot nutritious lunch. --Kathryn
