The letter goes on to explain how James and his sister Maya earned the money that they donated to this cause. James wrote,
“I fed our dog scout every day. I pulled up weeds in the garden (but not the broccoli). I used soap and water to clean the shed. I cleaned up the house, especially with the vacuum. I washed windows.” We were touched by James and Maya’s passion, no doubt inspired and enabled by their parents, Stefan and Ashley.
BRAC has made a credible commitment to improve the lives of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged people in Haiti, empowering women and girls, and fostering bottom-up economic development through sustainable financial services and social enterprise development. Drawing on its decades of experience in scaling up successful programs to a national level, BRAC has sketched a plan to implement an integrated development program.
Thank you, James and Maya, for the beautiful letter and for contributing to our work and touching our hearts.
