The Foyer Maurice Sixto is a school in Carrefour Haiti. It's mission is to educate and enrich the lives of restavek children. A restavek is a child who is sent by their parents to work for a host household as a domestic servant because the parents lack the resources required to support the child. The restavek may be treated well, or abused. They are required by law to be sent to school but many are not, and they are generally looked down upon. The school recently started a music component, featured in this video.
One amazing thing about this video is watching the founder of the Foyer School tell us about his intention to make the world a better place, while standing in front of a flimzy tent that has become his home. He is passionate about caring for and giving to others, while he lives in condiions that we would consider unacceptable. What an inspiring person!!
