RCOF is proud to support the Rotaract Club of East Nassau as they hosted Liberating Literature. 
The Rotaract Club of East Nassau @rotaractcen , in conjunction with Rotary Club of Old Fort, Rotaract Saint-Marc and T.H.E.M Spoken Word Artists  hosted, "Liberating Literature- Restavek Spoken Word and Open Mic". 
 
The event raised funds to sponsor children in Haiti's admission into the Restavek Freedom Home, Haiti. In the Creole language, “restavek” means “to stay with.” Yet for the children who are called restavek, that definition is incomplete A restavek is an abused child in a family that is not his or her biological family. This child was given to a host family in the hope of a better life in exchange for doing chores. 
 
Restavek is a form of modern day child slavery in Haiti that arises out of Haiti’s challenging history affected by slavery, poverty, natural disasters, and many other problems and challenges.
