Investing in education
Recently, Westbow Foundation provided funds to complete the finishing of construction at the Haiti Free School in Mirebalais. The school has been operational already for a number of years providing a quality Christian education to over 550 students.
The first phase of construction, which is now complete, was the parging of the exterior walls to provide a smooth, clean finish. The school can now be painted and the remaining doors/windows installed.
Due to the ongoing political unrest in the country, the construction came to a halt for some time, but thankfully the work was able to resume in November.
