How You Can Help

Thank you for your help with PECH Project English Curriculum Haiti. Our biggest need is for monetary donations, which I will personally take to Haiti and use toward the purpose you intend. I will put project updates and photos on this blog so you can see the progress and purpose of your donation. 


All donations will go directly to help students in Haiti.  All volunteers pay their own costs and no donations go towards volunteers. 

You can donate in three, ways. The first is to send donations directly to me at PECH, 3313 Monsarrat Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815, checks payable to "Julie Akey-PECH". The second option is to donate electronically through this blog by clicking on the "donate" button. If you have a large donation and would like a receipt for tax purposes please donate with our third option, through the non-profit Christel Aime recently began in Colorado called "Colorado Springs for Haiti". Their website, Colorado Springs for Haiti has a link to donate electronically. Or you can mail donations to them at Colorado Springs for Haiti, 6690 Northwind Dr., Colorado Springs, CO 80918. Please let me know if you donate through Colorado Springs for Haiti, so that I can follow up and take your donation to Haiti in May.

Aside from monetary donations, I am collecting gently used early reader books in English (K-3rd grade level), any level book in French, French-English dictionaries, and children's artwork.

Lastly, on my dream list is for someone to pay to ship a container of donations from Honolulu to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. If, by some miracle, someone donates this, I will be accepting donations of gently used school supplies, books, toys, desks, chairs, chalkboard paint, etc...
