Compilation of Data collected on some schools linked to Jecyhm Bible and Life

This table provides data on the situation of some schools graduating from 2020 to 2025. When armed terrorist gangs establish themselves in areas, villages, or towns, all progress regresses. People leave the areas; economic activities cease by exaggerated percentages between 50% and 80%. In Gressier, almost 90% of the population had fled when the terrorists invaded the Commune. When people left, businesses, schools, industries—if any—closed. So, the people who remained had practically no work: no commerce. And agriculture no longer recorded harvests.

Furthermore, schools are barely functioning. Students are not receiving their daily bread, teachers are not receiving pay, and principals are closing their doors. Teachers cannot be paid in a school reduced to 50 to 75% of its enrollment. And those that remain struggle to cover expenses. Only schools that receive aid can remain viable. Some that reopen are suffering deeply from exaggerated deficits and lack of revenue.

Schools need help, like other parts of Haitian society.

These declines can be seen in cities like Bon Repos, Canaan, and generally within Croix-des-Bouquets. These are locations in the north and east of Port-au-Prince, Haiti’s capital.

These same declines in activity are observed in the south: Martissant, Carrefour, Gressier, and the Porte de Léogane. In 2025, terrorists invaded Kenscoff, a little east of Port-au-Prince, and took over the town of Mirebalais in the Central Plateau, or Central Department of Haiti. They also established themselves in Saut-D’Eau, a district of Mirebalais. Even in other departments not affected by gangs, economic and social life is declining, affecting schools, businesses, and families.

Below, we present a register of some schools, showing their situation regarding the loss of students who no longer attend classes, and the inactivity of schools, comparing today and before the gangs took over these territories. The list is a little part of more and more difficult situations.

That gives a budget of more than 200,000 US $.

But our projects only for school goes over 5,000,000 US $ per year. However, how we receive, will be how we can support others.

Please, then your government will not be willing to support us only for school. We have a lot of projection in rural development and change for a positive behavior to prepare most people in Haiti for Developmental projects.

Compilation de Données recueillies sur quelques écoles liées à Jecyhm Bible et Vie

Ce tableau apporte des données de la situation de quelques écoles sortant de 2020 à 2025. Quand les gangs terroristes armés se sont imposés dans des zones, villages, ou villes, toute activité de progrès régresse. Des gens quittent les zones, les activités économiques cessent jusqu’à des pourcentages exagérés entre 50% à 80%. A Gressier, presque 90% de la population avait déguerpi quand les terroristes avaient envahi la Commune. Quand les gens sont partis, les commerces, les écoles, les industries – s’il y en avait – se fermaient. Donc les gens qui restaient n’avaient pratiquement pas de travail : pas de commerce. Et l’agriculture n’enregistrait plus de récoltes.

En outre, les écoles ne fonctionnent pas ou presque pas. Donc, les élèves ou étudiants ne reçoivent pas le pain quotidien, les professeurs ne touchent, les directeurs ferment les portes. On ne peut pas payer des professeurs dans une école réduite entre 50 à 75% de ses effectifs. Et ceux qui restent ont du mal à payer les coûts de dépenses. Seulement les écoles qui reçoivent des aides peuvent rester viables. Il y a de ceux qui ouvrent à nouveau qui souffrent profondément des déficits et manques de revenus exagérés.

Les écoles ont besoin de secours comme d’autres parties de la vie sociétale d’Haïti.

On peut constater ces régressions dans des villes comme à Bon Repos ; Canaan, à l’intérieur de la Croix-des-Bouquets en général. Ce sont des endroits du Nord et de l’Est de Port-au-Prince, la Capitale d’Haïti.

Ces mêmes régressions d’activité sont constatées au Sud : Martissant, Carrefour, Gressier, et la porte de Léogane. En 2025, les terroristes ont envahi Kenscoff, un peu à l’Est de Port-au-Prince ; et ont pris la Ville de Mirebalais dans le Plateau Central ou du Département du Centre d’Haïti. Ils se sont aussi installés à Saut-D’Eau, un arrondissement de Mirebalais. Et même dans d’autres Départements non affectés par des gangs, la vie économique, et sociale se régressent affectant ainsi les écoles, les businesses et les familles.

En bas, nous présentons un registre de quelques écoles étalant leur situation de perte d’élèves qui ne fréquentent plus les établissements, et de non activité des écoles comparant aujourd’hui et avant la prise de ces territoires par les gangs.
