LAKOU, in simple terms, is Creole for "the yard"

Today, first year participants in the Lakou NFP Construction Training Program completed their final exam in Block Laying and Mortar, marking an important milestone in their first year of training.

Throughout the year, these young people have been gaining hands-on experience and practical knowledge across various areas of construction. The Block Laying and Mortar class challenged them to develop precision, patience, teamwork, and attention to detail essential skills for any successful construction professional.

Today we celebrate their achievement. Tomorrow they continue their journey, gaining new skills and expanding their knowledge as they work toward becoming the next generation of construction professionals.
When we invest in young people, we don't just build workers—we build leaders, builders, and the future of Haiti.

This is bigger than construction.

It’s mentorship.
It’s opportunity.
It’s Haitians building Haiti.
