YOUR SCHOOL is invited to learn, innovate and help your Haitian peers to overcome disaster…
…by working with us on an educational and inspirational fund-raising project for a sustainable girls’ school complex in downtown Port-au-Prince, Haiti. THINKING DEVELOPMENT was set up in 2010 after an earthquake destroyed the capital of Haiti. The Sisters of St. Joseph of Cluny in Haiti are one of the country’s largest educator of women, and they lost most of their schools and other facilities in the Port-au-Prince area. Since no one else was offering them support to do long-term planning, a group of young architects, engineers and urban designers set up Thinking Development to help them do the project they needed. Together, our international team and the school children and teachers have designed a beautiful, eco-friendly, disaster-resilient school. What’s more, it’s designed to be easily adapted for sites all over the city. Now we need to raise enough money to start construction, and we think you could help! CHECKLIST • Enthusiasm and creativity to support Haiti this autumn? • Desire to be part of an innovative, sustainable project that supports education for everyone? • Space in the school calendar before Christmas? • A team of volunteers (us!) to help you plan some great fund-raising activities (e.g. recycling
unwanted metal, a readathon, talent show, battle of the bands, art/design competition, creative writing competition, jumble sale, quiz)?
Rebuilding schools is integral to Haiti 's long-term recovery from disaster.
Help us start with schools.
BENEFITS OF SUPPORTING • You can contribute to building a new girls’ school complex in Port-au-Prince • Pupils will gain a deeper understanding of the effects of disasters, like Haiti’s earthquake, on
communities in other parts of the world and learn more about the difference between sustainable disaster relief and emergency aid
• If pupils support the November/December crowd-funding campaign, they will learn how a campaign works and see the potential of crowd-funding for small, idealistic projects
• Pupils and staff will be able to track exactly what a difference their contribution has made to our online campaign, and ultimately to the lives of those at our school in Port-au-Prince
HOW IT WORKS
1. If you’re accessible to one of our team in the UK, Ireland, USA, Sydney, Haiti, Puerto Rico, France, Chile or Colombia, someone from our team will give a presentation about the project at your school. If we can’t be there, we’ll provide you with a succinct and energetic video presentation. → 2. A fund-raising event takes place at your school in November.
→ 3. You donate the funds to our online campaign.
→ 4. Watch the blue bar rise – thanks to your hard work.
→ 5. Stay connected! If enough schools join us in supporting this project, we could
build this school quickly and start a wave of sustainable school reconstruction in Haiti. At the moment they’re still short thousands of schools.
YOUR REWARD • A copy of our book for library, dedicated to your school • One of the Centre Rosalie pupils' drawing of her dream school framed and dedicated to your
school • We’ll thank you on our website with a picture or short video of the fund-raisers and their
messages to the girls in Haiti (the challenge is to do this in French or Haitian Creole!) • We will work with you to design teaching resources for half-term or term projects on natural
disasters, sustainable architecture, citizenship in line with the National Curriculum • You’ll have been part of something amazing, a charity that treats people from everywhere as
equals, and helps them to secure the things we take for granted on their terms – not on ours.

Centre Rosalie JavouheyPhase 1 Cost Breakdown
With the assistance of Bruce Shaw Quantity Surveyors, we have
estimated the total cost for the 1st new school block (Phase 1) to be
$1,090,000USD. This includes 10% for technical design (making
instructions for those who build with exact measurements, material
quantities) and a further 10% for local project management, supervision
and training. The remaining 80% will cover construction labour and
materials. All costs are conservative estimates based on similar projects
already under construction in Haiti.

HolisticProjects must be planned with the bigger
picture in mind; they must consider all
local needs, resources, infrastructure and
ambitions for the future. This ensures that
we only implement projects that are needed
and that lead to empowering, equitable, and
sustainable development.
Disaster-resilientAll designs and implementation plans must be
resilient to environmental and social threats,
like earthquakes, hurricanes, poor materials
and poor construction skills.
InclusiveThe design and planning process has to
include all groups who are immediately
IƇIGXIH�F]�XLI�TVSNIGX��8LMW�WLSYPH�ensure a non-partisan outcome that is
maximally useful. It should also empower
all collaborators to look after their collective
creation and continue sustainable
development planning.
InspiringSchool spaces must be child-friendly; they
must inspire learning, play and creativity; they
must allow local children to learn the skills
their communities need; and they must feel
safe, secure, and welcoming to all they serve.
EfficientDesigns must use materials, styles and skills on
the local market. They must also be modular
and easy to replicate. This makes the building
cheaper and easy to maintain, and enables
people to improve the construction skills that
they need.
