This program, didntchange my life, it helpeddefine it. Not only by

equipping me with thetrade skills of plummer, but withthe necessary experience to sus-

tain a successful career as a skilltradesman, Hillaire Godson, ayoung distinguished beneficiary

from our reinsertion programdefinitely set his self apart from

his peers.

January,12th ,2010 changed the

course of Godson life forever, a

refugee currently living in displace-

ment camp of Jean Marie Vincent,

filled with dreams of what his fu-

ture would hold had to plainly put

his life on hold after the devastat-

ing earthquake of January 12th.

Godson elaborated on how this

program not only equipped a tech-

nical trade, but served as a means

for receiving a global education,

gaining valuable work experience

and changing the course of his

life forever.

Godson elaborated on how thisprogram not only equipped a

technical trade in plumbing, butserved as a means for receiving aglobal education, gaining valuable

work experience and changing

the course of his life forever.

A bit more about Godson Hil-

laire:

-Born on June 9th , 1989.

-Wants to be remembered for

his talent, sincerity and discipline

-His idol: Nelson Mandela

-Favorite word: equanimity- tran-

quility of spirit

Each person has their lot in life,

at HPCD we believe that re-gardless of where life hasplaced you it doesnt need to

define your future. The earthquake of

January literally transformed and dis-placed the lives of hundreds of thou-sands people in the metropolitan

area.

HPCD is working to ensure that in

spite inconveniences of the youth

living in displacement camps, there is

opportunity to go to a respected

trade school and gain valuable experi-

ences at premier construction compa-

nies and in the country.
