This event has been extremely successful reaching a full capacity of more than 1,000 participants.  This year the National Honor Society has decided to give to the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere, less than 350 miles from our shores, Haiti.The National Honor Society of Baldwin School of Puerto Rico has then decided to assist the Jean Cadet Restavek Foundation of Haiti, in their plight to assist the over 300,000 children currently enslaved in Haiti.  This event will incorporate a campaign to raise consciousness about the urgent need for help in a place much closer than Africa, within the realm of the Caribbean.  An educational campaign, followed by a large-scale fundraiser will occur.
