PCI means to support 20 people to learn computer course

The Pierre-Paul Christian Initiative needs $ 3,400 US for supporting 20 people to learn computer course over a whole year (About $ 14.2 US per month for each beneficiary). The people targeted are mostly youngsters or teenagers from Jacmel  who are going through severe economic situation.

For the first weekend of April 2011, the PCI means to support 20 children and young adults in need to learn computer course. Using computer is mostly important in Haiti. Without computer and internet knowledge, one is so hard to find a good job. The church board does its best to support the children, but due to the economic fall from the January 2010 earthquake that killed more than 230 000 people, the resources are more limited. And the 20 people targeted are really in need of learning. 

"This project will help them avoid the illegal and immoral pleasures that often attract young people, and which turn their future to hell", President JosuĂ© Pierre-Paul declared when studying the project opportunity. Lots of children and young adults, when they see they can't learn anything because they don't get funds for that, they become hopeless and are exposed to any kind of illegal and immoral actions. 

As for the girls in Haiti, as they are beautiful, many of them go to prostitution as they are hopeless and stop believing in the future. Even Christians forsake their belief trying to find a living elsewhere. With this project, we will be able to help them see there is a future even though things are most hard.

The Pierre-Paul Christian Initiative received over the second week of February 2011 a loan from Mark Denicore who has been doing his best to support Haiti after the January 2010 earthquake. With the loan, we have acquired new desktops so we can offer better computer services to children and young adults. 

The funds requested requested will be used to pay the teachers and cover their copies and help them find books and copies they can need over the year. 

The course must begin during the first weekend of April. If you would like to help us in this project, please contact us :
