Crosby Fund for Haitian Education, Inc.

The Crosby Fund was founded by Frederick and Rebecca Crosby in September 2014, who strongly believe that education needs to be a large component of nation building. After volunteering in Haiti for 5 years, witnessing the abject poverty of most Haitian families, and learning the fact that education is not free, the couple founded their scholarship granting organization. In 2004, they began with 34 high school students, one employee and a board of Haitian advisers, and today they offer scholarships to 360 and employ 6 Haitian employees. Students who are offered a scholarship may remain in the program if they maintain a 6.0 average in their report card. We have many students who have graduated with college degrees and are employed in the professional world. Individuals may sponsor students at the university and technical school level.
