ESTRELLA Responds Second Time

During Norma Nashed’s visit to Haiti in February 2014, she called Rafael Campusano (photo), Chief Engineer of ESTRELLA Road Construction Company, to schedule an appointment.

He had already built an access road from the NEW highway to Restore a Child Academie in November 2013. This major highway will connect Haiti with the Dominican Republic and is paid for by the European Union. Mr. Campusano was gracious to offer to come to the school to see our need, knowing well that Norma needed something from him..

Norma told Campusano she would like the dirt removed and the ground leveled leading to our " Garden
of Prayer " beautiful, and peaceful location at the bottom of the hill surrounded by trees. Instantly Campusano was on the phone giving instructions to his supervisor to do the job.

The next morning at 9:00 am one of ESTRELLA's excavators was dispatched to remove the dirt and level the ground which you see in Photo 4. This is $20,000 savings and also saving us three months of manual labor.months of manual labor and delay.

Haiti School Dedication - sand ribbon cutting ceremony of Restore a Child Academie


Students, parents and guests from the community with the town mayor (250 total) gathered on Saturday at 10:00 am for the dedication sand ribbon cutting ceremony of Restore a Child Academie.


We had worship and singing and thanked God for providing a quality-education school for the poor children of Bois Pin. With the new highway almost ready, children who could afford to go to school have to walk for an hour on this high-speed highway endangering their lives.

Thanks to our school children walk 1-5 minutes to our school on a safe private local road.
