The team at ConectUS Wireless is happy to announce that we are sponsoring the Saint Bartholomew Friends of Haiti March Madness Trivia Night on March 2 in Columbus, Indiana. This night will be filled with trivia, a buffet, silent auctions, and much more.
This is the fourth year that Saint Bartholomew has put on a fundraiser for the Friends of Haiti ALFA Literacy program, and this is the first year that it has been a March Madness theme. The ALFA Literacy program helps adults in Haiti learn to read and write, and ConectUS is looking forward to sponsoring this event for the second straight year.
“We are excited to be sponsoring this wonderful event for the second straight year,” ConectUS Wireless President and General Manager John Scully stated. “This is for a great cause and we can’t wait to see how Saint Bartholomew continues to help Haiti.”
ConectUS Wireless is the Slam Dunk Sponsor for this event, and helping those in need is something that we strive to do whenever we can. Through this sponsorship, ConectUS Wireless will be helping adults learn to read all across Haiti. Through these adults learning to read, they can help teach their children to learn to read and write as well, while also becoming more independent.
Chris Schwartz is part of the fundraising committee for the Friends of Haiti at Saint Bartholomew, and she has taken five groups to Haiti herself. In an exclusive interview with ConectUS Wireless, Chris detailed the Friends of Haiti program at Saint Bartholomew and shared several amazing stories about how the ALFA Literacy program has changed lives in Limonade, Haiti.
“We want to level out this fundraising to reach everyone in our community and to spread the word about why literacy is so important,” Chris told ConectUS Wireless. “It’s a basic right of every human person and it makes a life-changing difference.”
One of Chris’ favorite parts about leading these trips to Haiti and helping teach adults literacy is the joy that they have when they write their names for the first time. She said that many people cry tears of joy when they write their names for the first time, and it is an extremely rewarding experience.
Chris is thankful for ConectUS Wireless’ generous donation, and we are looking forward to continuing this partnership in years to come.
“We are really far behind in helping Haiti rise up,” Chris told ConectUS Wireless. “With people like yourselves, we’ll be able to make that happen.”
