Young Jedi Fundraisers - Student Virtual Volunteer Position

Save to Favorites

Haiti-Now is dedicated to empowering Haitian girls living in domestic servitude to overcome poverty and exploitation to achieve economic security.

Have you ever wanted to be startlingly impressive to change the world but didn't know where to start?

Here is an opportunity to help the Haitian girls in domestic servitude (Restaveks) by fundraising for the ambitious residential school project.

Restavek's are children who spend their days performing menial labor without pay, education, nutrition, or hope. In the absence of family, full citizenship, and fundamental human rights, they endure physical, emotional, and sexual abuse.

Children become Restavek in order to survive -- to gain access to food and shelter their impoverished families are unable to provide. In return for their labor, they are promised access to these primary necessities and education.
That promise is rarely kept. Instead, they eat scraps, sleep under tables, care for the host’s children, and rarely complete basic education.

We believe youth are the backbone of any nation. We are recruiting Student Volunteers like you who are passionate to go beyond. You can contribute ideas, talents, Intelligence, time for fundraising.

This opportunity is for a high spirited individual like you, to become our Student ambassadors, articulate our story, persuade and influence your networks to contribute to this humanitarian cause.
