Illiteracy in Bayonnais

November 15, 2007

Life is getting more and more difficult in Haiti so the people who didn’t go to school cannot find any jobs, because they don’t know how to read or write. Right now the children have a possibility to go to school because they are very young, but the older people cannot go to school. For them to go to school, they would have to sit down between or next to the children in some classes and they would not like this.
By thinking with them about this situation, I see it is important that they go to school.  But going to school for them is not easy because they are between twenty and thirty years old, and they don’t have any jobs in order to pay the school fees.  Paying the teachers to work with them is very difficult.  If we find some friends who would like to think about tutoring, it would be fantastic.  You all who care for other people and have a will to do well, I hope you will do it.
So, if we found some money for this project, these people would be able to go to school and it would be a privilege for them.  The creation of a school for these uneducated adults would be interesting and people in Bayonnais would be happy and they would clap for the sponsors who gave this money or payed the teachers for them.
So, I express my ideas to you and I hope you will do what is best.  Now I think you know what I am talking about.  I don’t know if I am wrong or right.  If I am right, I would like you to think about that and the people in Bayonnais would be happier and more advanced.
I think that you understand my idea and my objective, and I thank you for your understanding and kindness.
