Still Jaspora is a social movement.
Now in the wake of the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that hit Haiti in January 2010, we realize that it is not enough to help provide relief for its victims and turn away again. As our generation grows more powerful and more educated, we are better able to turn the country away from its current course of destruction. To give back to our parents’ generation, who left everything familiar to provide better lives for us, we will fix Haiti. We’ll help bring it into the 21st century with education, health, and financial reform. Eventually.
We’ll establish a global network of 2nd generation “Jaspora” just like us from all corners of the world: The Bahamas, France, African nations, French New Guinea. We’ll teach the brothers and sisters that were left behind what we’ve learned off the island; to empower them, to empower us, to empower Haiti.
