VERO BEACH, Florida - Art gives us beauty and invites us into new ways of seeing the world—and on this night, art also helps change people's lives in Haiti! Please join us on Friday, March 4, 2016, at 5:30pm, as Haiti Partners hosts its 4th annual “Educate & Celebrate†event at The Northern Trust Bank, located at 755 Beachland Boulevard, Vero Beach. The evening will feature gourmet food and wine pairings, followed by live and silent auctions containing paintings, jewelry, woodworkings, and more.
The focus will be meaningful fun, friendship, food, wine, and art that benefits education in Haiti through the work of Haiti Partners. Co-directors Kent Annan (Vero Beach resident and author of three books) and John Engle (whose family relocated from Vero Beach to Haiti after the 2010 earthquake) will speak briefly on the work of Haiti Partners.
Tickets can be purchased for $125 per person, and $100 of the ticket price is tax deductible and will have a direct impact on providing quality education for the children and young adults of Haiti.

This is done through collaboration with schools, churches, and organizations to transform communities. Each year, Haiti Partners educates more than 1,000 children in seven primary schools in Haiti. They also provide scholarships to 36 young community leaders to attend seminary while they apprentice with our churches program to promote children's rights.
