A Story of Hope for Neicha, Lorwensky, and Bet

Neicha, Lorwensky, and Bet, three siblings living near Port-de-Paix, Haiti, have faced unimaginable hardship over the past few months. Their father tragically passed away, leaving their mother, Lovemika, to raise them on her own. As a single mother, Lovemika has struggled to find steady work, which has made it nearly impossible to provide basic necessities like food, let alone afford the cost of her children’s education.

For this family, school is a vital lifeline, offering hope for a brighter future. However, the annual cost of education—about $300 per child—along with the expense of uniforms and shoes, has pushed that dream out of reach. Despite their circumstances, Lovemika and her children remain committed to their local church, where they serve in any way they can.

When we shared the story of Neicha, Lorwensky, and Bet with the Lasting Change Haiti family, the response was heartwarming. Three generous families came together to provide the financial support needed to cover school fees for all three children for the year. But they didn’t stop there. These families also made it possible for the children to have new uniforms and shoes, while offering additional help to provide food for the family during this difficult time.

Thanks to this outpouring of love and generosity, Neicha, Lorwensky, and Bet now have the chance to continue their education and move forward with hope. Their story reminds us of the power of community and the profound difference we can make in each other’s lives, one family at a time.

Update : Regarding the money we sent for Lovemica’s children’s school, it has been a great blessing. After paying the school fees, we used the remaining funds to buy fabric for the children’s uniforms. With the leftover money, we helped Lovemica start a small business. This will allow her to provide food for her children before and after school. The business may need to grow, but it’s a good start. I will send you some pictures of Lovemica and her business soon.
