Fathers’ Pride

Greetings:

The month of June offers many reasons to celebrate as we transition from spring into the summer season and celebrate Father’s Day – June 16th in the U.S. and June 30th in Haiti.

June Celebratory Highlights for Le Flambeau Foundation   –

• Completion of Scholar Ruchama’s First Year of college (her story)
• Winners of THE SPARK of Le Flambeau spring semester (full story)
• Graduation of our sons and daughters – congratulations (yes!)
• Launch of a new Le Flambeau Foundation Scholar (full story)
• Our Fathers, the original foundation for Le Flambeau (Senator Emile Saint-Lot, Dr. Luc L. Colas)

See links and references for each story.

In closing, I offer these final thoughts.  It is together, both parents and members of an entire generation, that we send our children into the world equipped with advantages bent on accelerating their achievements.  The distance traveled by our offspring depends on the strength of their foundation – a foundation steeped in education and for which a father’s mentor-ship is pivotal – and from which a mother’s spirit nurtures.  We thank our forefathers and embrace our responsibility in passing their lessons forward.   We beam with PRIDE in what was, what is, and what will be.   Enjoy your family time on Father’s Day and over the summer.  A bright future is ahead!

Warm regards,

Board Members: J. St.Lot-Gervais, J. Puchner, T. Wright III, G. Collingwood, S. Colas-Gervais
