Overview ..............................................................................................................
The client is Hope for the Children of Haiti (HFC), a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, currently operating a school for 250 children and shelter for 60 vulnerable children in Bolosse, Port-au-Prince. Because the needs of the children in Haiti are so overwhelming, a new facility is planned on a 16-acre parcel of land owned by HFC in Bon Repos. This new Campus d’Espoir (Campus of Hope) will provide a home to 90 vunerable children, a school for 400 children, a trade school, housing for staff and volunteers and a medical clinic serving both the immediate school population and people from the surrounding area.
