Support the schooling of 300 children in Haiti.

First report 2026 on the project: Support the Schooling of 300 children in Haiti

At the end of the post-holiday period at the end of the 2025 school year, students had returned to school. For the 2026 academic year, Action et Transformation continues to implement its commitments to vulnerable children in rural areas of Haiti. This technical report provides an update on the program's progress and the interim results observed in the learning assessment.

Direct interventions to support beneficiaries remain constrained by very significant resource limitations. Nevertheless, the organization has ensured the continuity of partnerships with targeted schools, while maintaining a technical support system for teachers and administrative staff. In addition, two community mobilization sessions, in the form of parent-teacher meetings, were organized during the reporting period. These activities helped raise parents' awareness of their role in monitoring their children's academic progress and providing them with socio-emotional support.

The 2024-2025 academic year ended with a total enrollment of 129 students. For the 2025-2026 academic year, enrollment has fallen significantly to 77 students. This decrease is mainly due to the organization's inability to renew its support for a number of children who were previously beneficiaries. Furthermore, the majority of these children come from displaced families who have found refuge in Hinche, at the (Haut-Plateau Central), due to ongoing insecurity linked to violence by armed groups.

However, ongoing budgetary constraints have limited the full implementation of some of the program commitments initially planned, thereby reducing the scope of the planned interventions.

In this context, the organization expresses its gratitude to donors for their financial support. It launches an appeal for new contributions, both regular and one-off, but also for new donors to sponsor our education program with their donations in order to ensure the sustainability and expansion of the educational program. Increased funding would help consolidate the schooling of children exposed to multiple threats and promote their social development.

This report is completed by appendices including images of beneficiaries in learning situations and data on their performance results during the period under review.

The re-opening of schools took place on October 1, 2025, in a context of crisis. Action et Transformation was unable to honor its commitments to disadvantaged children in rural schools in Haiti's Central Highlands region. Of the three partner schools enrolled in its program to support the poorest of the poor, none have yet received a penny from Action et Transformation's financial department. For now, we are content to report on their attendance in the classroom.

With regard to their academic performance, assessments have not yet been held. They will take place for Control 1 from December 15 to 19, 2025, according to the assessment schedule established by the Ministry of National Education and Vocational Training (MENFP).

The Action and Transformation Organization hopes to raise funds from the generosity of its supporters in the coming days so that it can support the education of rural schoolchildren in Haiti.

Presently, schools supported in Haiti's Central Department (Haut Plateau Central) are facing a surge in families fleeing repeated gang attacks in the areas of Mirebalais, Seau d'Eau, and other surrounding regions. Action et Transformation plans to provide additional support to these displaced families, not only in terms of their children's education but also by providing them with food assistance. However, it does not have the means to implement its policy. In this regard, we are launching an urgent appeal to the generosity of supporters everywhere to help us come to the rescue of the vulnerable in these areas of intervention.

We have attached photos of the reopening of classes and the hard work of teachers to provide these children with a basic education.
