MACOL stands for Magasin Communaitaire de Lemuel (Lemuel Community Store). It is a local warehouse that stocks supplies in bulk and makes them available to the community at lower cost. The store provides sustainable jobs and it will benefit families and small business owners for miles around by providing goods at a lower cost. A portion of the proceeds also supports community outreach.

School supply store!

Almost everyone is familiar with the yearly ritual of buying school supplies for the start of a new school year.

On the Plateau, it can be difficult to find all the supplies that are needed. What cannot be obtained in Anse-Rouge requires a trip to Gonaives, which creates additional hassles and travel costs for parents.

Next year, they hope to establish a school supplies store. The hope is that the new school store will accomplish two objectives:

1. It will make school supplies more easily accessible and affordable for parents and students.

2. It will provide Lemuel's school with self-sustaining, supplemental income for operating costs and special activities.
