VBS MISSION PROJECT The Missionary: Francklin (shown with his wife Nerlie) was appointed as a missionary with Missions Door in 2006 to serve as the youth and children’s ministries coordinator. He works with the pastors of churches that are associated with Missions Door in Haiti, helping those churches develop children’s and youth ministries.
The Project: For many children in Haiti, the cost of education often hinders them from attending school and receiving an education. Your support to the Haiti Children’s School Scholarships project is an opportunity to provide a child with the gift of continued education. All gifts given to this project go directly towards paying for school fees.
The Numbers: Cost for 1 Child to attend school for 1 year is $355.00. This amount includes: Entry fee of $12, Monthly cost of $20 (x9 months = $180), School supplies worth $50 (includes uniforms!).
