New Roots Haiti

“He thinks he’s the king of Chiron. He thinks he can do whatever he wants.”

That’s how one staff member described an 8-year-old boy when he first joined our program.

For four years, he was our biggest troublemaker. He struggled with behavior, had already been kicked out of several schools, and needed 2-on-1 tutoring just to learn how to read.

But we refused to give up on him.

Because academics weren’t the real goal.
Helping him build relationships was.

Over the past six months, we began to see something change — not just in his schoolwork, but in his heart.

During a Bible lesson about Zacchaeus, he raised his hand and shared something we will never forget:

“Before I came to the Dream Center, I had no friends. Everyone avoided me because of my bad behavior. I felt alone and sometimes I thought no one could love me."”

Then he smiled and said:

“Now I have friends. I am happy. You changed my life, and I will never forget it.”

Every child has a story.
Every child deserves a chance.

With your support, more children like him can find hope, friendship, and a new future.
