Our Lady of Wisdom School for abandoned children was founded in 1883 by the Daughters of Wisdom at Petit Gôave in Haiti.  Since its foundation, this school has always aimed to provide for these abandoned and generally neglected girls a high quality education at a minimum cost.

In order for the school to carry out its work in educating these disadvantaged young girls, it is important that it have the required infrastructure, i.e.: new classrooms and more space to receive a growing number of students- all this to enable an adequate education for their benefit and that of their families and of society.
