Cite Soleil is known to be one of the poorest and most dangerous cities in the entire world. Everyday, thousands of kids living in the region wake up unaware of when or where their next meal will come from, and unfortunately some of these same kids won't have a place to call home. This type of poverty often prohibits children, teens and young adults from what is important such as family, community, school, athletics, arts and just simply being a kid. With nowhere else to turn, many kids and young adults join gangs. By providing kids a positive path and give them an optimistic outlook of the future, we can promote the important aspects in life. Sprint to Cite Soleil is a basketball program that works alongside the community of Cite Soleil, Haiti to inspire, empower, and create peace. Joseph Sadrack, a Cite Soleil peace prize winner and basketball president, is our in-country director and insures the program is running smoothly in Haiti. The 160 kids enrolled into the Sprint to Cite Soleil basketball program (boys and girls grades 1-12) practice every weekend in a school courtyard and are trained by 10 fabulous coaches. The kids enrolled in the program receive clean water every practice and once a week are served a homemade meal prepared by the 4 outstanding cooks we have hired. Although founded on the idea of basketball, Sprint to Cite Soleil is a social movement that stretches across the entire community of Cite Soleil, having established partnerships with multiple orphanages, hospitals, non-profits and more!
