The Celebrate Haiti Poster Project, a Wonderful Group Activity

It has been two years since the earthquake and we are asking students like you to use your voice to stand up, remember, and celebrate Haiti's victories by designing posters as a part of the Celebrate Haiti Poster Project.

It's fun and simple, and you can make a difference. Learn all about Haiti, and then make a poster that includes these three words:

Celebrate. Remember. Haiti.

Use these three words in any way. Write a story or a poem, or just write them as bold statements. The possibilities are endless: draw, design, paint, collage, or color. Learn more about how to participate. Below see some examples of what students have done.

Why does your voice matter?

Watch a short video about Diandine, a Port-au-Prince high school senior who lost her home and school because of the earthquake. See her life in a tent camp, and find out what it means to her to know that Haiti has not been forgotten.

Even in the face of natural disaster and many obstacles, the Haitian people don’t give up. They are proud, strong, creative, and vibrant. With your voice you can raise awareness for Haiti. You can celebrate the strength and resilience of the Haitian people.
