Founded in September 2016, College Emmanuel now serves over 650 students in kindergarten, primary and secondary grades. More than just a school, it provides a Christ-centered education and daily warm meal to children from Emmanuel, the local community and the surrounding mountains around Jeremie.

There is no free education in Haiti. Through our scholarship program, “School for a Year,” children from the community whose parents cannot afford tuition can attend school and because of the warm meal every day, remain with their families, preventing them from being sent to orphanages or falling into the child slavery system known as “restaveks.” As a vital part of our orphan prevention efforts, College Emmanuel is shaping futures, with graduates continuing their education in universities in Haiti and Cuba, studying business, nursing and medicine.
