This isn’t something I would normally blog about here, but I’d like to take a minute to spread the word about a fundraising opportunity for Haitian Roots. Haitian Roots is an organization that our family (along with our extended family) became involved with last year. They’re a 501(c)(3) charitable organization who’s main focus is to provide educational opportunities to the children of Haiti. Because the average cost of tuition for a year is $250 per child, many children receive little or no education. A recent report released by the Global Campaign for Children’s Education listed Haiti (alongside Somalia) as one of the two worst countries in the world for children to be students.
Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty.
SixSeeds has generously offered to donate $2.00 for every comment posted on their website article about Haitian Roots. If you would, please take a moment to go here and leave a comment. This wonderful fundraising opportunity extends through the month of November so spread the word!

Thanks for this Beth. I didn’t know about it.
It’s a great opportunity. I put it on fb & twitter as well. Hopefully we can get the word out! 🙂
If you have more than one email address you can comment more than once!
