When Angeline walked across the stage in her cap and gown, surrounded by family and friends, it was more than a graduation — it was a celebration of resilience, hope, and the power of education to transform lives.
“As members of Hope for Haiti’s Education Department, we were filled with immense joy and gratitude watching her beam with pride,” said Romel Jean-Pierre, Interim Education Manager/Curriculum and Training Specialist. “Knowing her story, her economic hardships, her perseverance through obstacles, and her unwavering determination made the moment even more meaningful.”
Angeline’s journey with Hope for Haiti began as a scholarship recipient, but it didn’t end there. After completing her studies, she joined the Education team as a program assistant intern for six months. During that time, she strengthened her leadership and organizational skills, showcased her creativity, and became a valued member of the team. Her energy and commitment inspired everyone around her.
Reflecting on her experience, Angeline shared:
“It would have been impossible for me to complete my university studies without the unwavering support of Hope for Haiti. I come from a family where scarcity was part of everyday life. Meeting Hope for Haiti has been one of the greatest blessings of my life. Through this scholarship, I was able to study without worrying about financial constraints and, in turn, become an agent of change within my community.
Today, I dedicate myself to helping children with learning difficulties move forward.
I am deeply grateful to Hope for Haiti for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to join their team through an enriching internship. Their investment helped shape me into a woman full of dreams for her community and driven by the desire to uplift those most in need.”
