The Le Flambeau Foundation assists Haiti via Intellectual Infrastructure Development – the provision of a solid education foundation for the brightest youth and future leaders of Haiti. Intellectual Infrastructure Development is very important when you consider that among students completing high school, less than 1% make it to college. Through the efforts of the Le Flambeau Foundation, students living in Haiti are awarded U.S. college scholarships focused on building expertise in Haiti’s core growth engines – AGRICULTURE, ENGINEERING or INTERNATIONAL COMMERCE. They also receive courses in preparatory English and technology. Le Flambeau Foundation scholars, upon graduation, devote a minimum of two years working on initiatives, which contribute to the economic rebuilding of Haiti.
