Bresma Orphanage & School:
Brebis de Saint-Michel de L'attalaye, is an orphanage sponsored by Answered Prayers, and is located in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. This orphanage is a loving haven for Haiti's orphaned infants, toddlers, and older children. Established in August of 2002 Brebis de Saint-Michel de L'attalaye has grown rapidly expanding into two orphanage homes and a school in the last four years.
The baby orphanage houses infants and toddlers up to 4 years of age, while the big kid house is for children ages 4 and up. The orphanages are staffed with nurses and caregivers, as well as supervisors, directors, adoption couriers and facilitators. A doctor is also on call. All of these people are lovingly watching over and caring for these precious children of God.
Many children from this orphanage are available for adoption. If you are interested in adopting one of these angels, feel free to contact us and we will put you in touch with their Haitian Facilitator.
The BRESMA school was introduced in October 2006 as a means to educate Haitian children in order to raise up the next generation of Haitian leaders. At the BRESMA school siblings of those children who have been adopted by foreign families are given first preference for enrollment. Donations of school supplies are an on going need for this facility.
Cell Phone Program:
As part of our outreach program we are now working with several young men in Haiti working as an entrepreneurs to improve their own lives. These young men live at a home called Haitian Christian Youth. To help these young men start their cell phone business, we are trying to collect as many cell phones as possible, they can be new or used.
The phones that work in Haiti have to be tdma compatible (Non compatible phones are worth $5-$10 USD for parts)
Mission Trips: Volunteers from the US and Canada go to Haiti quarterly (about every 3 months) for a visit, they work on improving conditions at the orphanage, loving the children as well as delivering many needed donations. We would love to have you join us on one of these trips. A trip to Haiti may be just what you've been looking for. You will be blessed to travel to Haiti and meet the beautiful people and culture....
