We completed our 12th THE SPARK of Le Flambeau class!…headed into our fifth year. Congratulations to students in Haiti and the U.S. for the impressive performance. Winners will soon be announced. We note that Being THE SPARK of Le Flambeau comes in many forms…
With THE SPARK of Le Flambeau program the top performers in both countries receive official award certificates. The Dell notebook laptop along with a set of English learning CD’s, will be awarded to the grand winner in Haiti. Additional items will be awarded to other hardworking student class members, with the help of our supporters; tools to continue their forward movement in education. A few have asked “how can we help” – we offer the following options for being THE SPARK of Le Flambeau in some form, for someone in Haiti.
