I took this picture last June, it is a picture of little trade that was running by Eveline. She’s an 11 year old girl living in my area. I had some talk with her during last June especially the day that I took the picture. Eveline is one of the children who lives in poverty every day, and she’s like other children who don’t have access of education.
She is growing up in family of 8 children and she is the youngest. Her mother sells mangoes and avocados especially when their season is on.Eveline was taking over the commerce when her mother couldn’t sit along the street to sell.

Eveline did not go to school during last academic year. She sits along the street selling mangoes. She told me school is important but due to lack of possibility that her mother has, she can’t attend school. For this new academic year, nothing does not change for Eveline and even for other children in my area. Eveline is not going to school for this new academic year. She can’t not read and write. Education is the biggest matter that can change Haiti. Many children don’t go to school while this world has lots of resources. Is it fair to talk about GLOBALIZATION, DEMOCRACY, and TECHNOLOGY in this kind of life?
Those children are growing up meantime they can’t read and write. They don’t even have the basic education to overcome certain thing. We all know that education makes life better and it helps us to take decision for our lives. In other words, Education is development. I remember I asked Eveline if she had opportunity to go school what would she like to be? She replied “I’d like to be someone who works in hospital or clinic, I said doctor or nurse, oh doctor she said.
I want to ask a question here, why Eveline’s dream can’t remain? Her dream would be important for Haiti and for the world in the next years. Eveline is not going to be only a citizen of Haiti but a citizen of the world. Every child has a dream in this country but this dream is far to realize .
I have done an overview concerning how many children who have access to school this year in my area, it was done during last week after the opening day. The situation remains the same. NO SCHOOL!
I want to start a program that could help the children with their education in my area. I call this program “ HELP DREAMS”. I am asking everyone here to do something that could help those children finding their dream. Before ending this post I want to be thankful to Dr John and Maria Carroll, Dr James and Jane Ebel and Helen Quade. Please feel free to contact me, hopeful to hear from you soon for this program. The children need you.
EDUCATION CAN CHANGE THEIR LIVES!

It’s not impossible, it is possible when they get opportunity.
