Support A Teacher

Currently Haiti is going through a recovery phase. But with that there are a lot of problems. There are lootings, robberies, and poor follow up medical care. The means for survival have fallen below normal human dignity.

Our mission is to keep people from falling into despair, especially the children. The Abundant Ground campaign is to Support A Teacher in Haiti.

Back to School Plan

By employing teachers, not only are we keeping the children in a healthy, safe environment but the teachers and administrators are helped and served as well.

At the Abundant Ground in Haiti, meals are served, clothes and basic medical supplies are distributed and the children are taught by qualified teachers who teach reading, writing, mathematics and science.

Currently we have over 500 children who need the support of this program. A current teacher’s salary is $125.00 a month that is approximately $.25 to educate one child.

Revolution

A sham election in Iran last June, led to a huge revolution, prompting the government to shut down communications to and from the entire country. In the past this would have been easy, but just as quickly as the regime could block servers, shut down cell phone service, or seize cameras, people all over Iran and the world were working to get them back up and spread the word (Al Giordano/The Green Wave Breaks the Information Blockade/6-15-2009).

People think of handheld devices like cell phones and Blackberries, as frivolous or as a way to stay over-connected to business contacts, family, and friends, but these pieces of technology are the weapons of choice for the new revolutions of our world. When the journalists were silenced, the people responded, and the word of oppression flowed freely from the borders of Iran.

All over the country, people risked their lives and safety to publish cell phone camera images, send text messages, and post updates on Twitter to let the rest of us know about the betrayal of their government and shed light on the injustice that was happening in the country. Information and media that showed up in places like YouTube, MySpace, and Twitter were painstakingly captured on handheld devices and sent out to the world with a plea of support for their reforms. With the boon of technology, world events will never quietly happen again.
