Kathia

When I have free time I like to play guitar, and I love reading, drawing, and painting. I'm really cool and relaxed. When I get older I would like to be a psychologist because I want to help others who've been traumatized.

Le mwen gen tan lib mwen renmen jwe gita, e mwen renmen li, fe desen ak penti anpil. Mwen vrenman koul e relax. Le mwen pi gran mwen ta renmen yon sikolog, paske mwen vle ede lot moun ki twomatize.

Jenika Sings For Freedom

by the Restavek Freedom Writers

Story: Jenika's life changed in an instant. One day she lived in the countryside with her mother and ten siblings, and the next she moved with her aunt to the city, where she was promised an education but was instead forced into a life of cooking, cleaning, and despair. The only thing that kept her going was her singing. Read this inspiring tale of a girl who overcame the odds, written by girls who understand her struggle.

Story Behind the Story: Written by a team of young women served by the Restavek Freedom Foundation, Jenika Sings For Freedom aims to raise awareness about the inhumanity and injustice of child slavery in Haiti. At the same time, the books give these young women the opportunity to shape the stories of their own lives with power and possibility and hope.
