Massachusetts Teen Organizes Chore Drive; Donates Funds

Massachusetts teenager Camille recently stopped by the HEI/SBH office to drop off donations she’d raised through a chore drive in her community. The setup—where teens would donate money they received for doing chores—was simple, and the donations added up. Camille, who visited Fond des Blancs earlier this year, says witnessing firsthand the difficulties many Haitians face inspired her to take action.

Camille is one of the founders of Kids For Timoun, a program at SBH whose goal is to mobilize kids in the U.S. and beyond to fund scholarships for Haitian children.
