Learning the English can serve as a tremendous asset and driver for elevation. This semester’s class consisted of youth from the North of Haiti, specifically Cap-Haitian.  The winner and the top four honorable mentions all received a certificate and 2-year English learning Babbel app. resulting from the Le Flambeau Foundation /Babbel partnership.
