β¨ Building Confidence, Building Futuresβ¨
On September 29, 2025, our Haiti Director, Joseph Kerbens Tony, spent time with the children we sponsor, leading a powerful session on developing self-esteem. Under the shade of a mango tree, the kids gathered to learn, laugh, and grow together discovering their worth, their potential, and their voices.
Alongside him, Ms. Dieuna, one of our dedicated foundation members, shared encouragement and joy with the children reminding them that they are loved, valued, and capable of great things. π
At the Evens Brutus Foundation, we believe that education is more than books and lessons. Itβs also about nurturing confidence, dignity, and hope in every child. Activities like these give our children the courage to dream and the strength to believe in themselves, despite the challenges they face daily.
π Every smile you see here is possible because of the love and support from our community and donors. Together, we are raising a generation of leaders for Haitiβs tomorrow. ππΉ

πBuilding a Future in the Face of Crisis: Support for Young Learners in Hincheπ
On August 27, 2025, the Evens Brutus Foundation met with a group of brave young students in Hinche, Haiti, who have been forced to flee their hometowns due to extreme gang violence.
Despite being displaced, these youth (ages 16 to 26) have chosen hope over fear. Many are now attending a local vocational school to study electricity, tiling and ceramic work, and other hands-on trades that can help them build a better future.
These young people are not on vacation they are survivors seeking stability through education.

A Special Visit With the Children in Cherival, Hinche, Haiti.
This week, I had the opportunity to meet a wonderful group of children in Cherival, a rural community outside the city of Hinche, Haiti. These bright and resilient kids gathered with joy and curiosity, despite facing daily challenges like lack of basic school supplies and limited access to education.
Through the Evens Brutus Foundation, we are committed to standing beside them offering hope, support, and essential resources like school supplies, hygiene kits, and spiritual encouragement.
Moments like these remind us why our mission matters. Every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and dream no matter where they were born.
ππ½ Together, we are building hope one child at a time. ππΉ
