Last year, Karen Civil announced plans to launch a Live Civil school and playground in Haiti. On May 18th Karen traveled back to Haiti to celebrate “Haitian Flag Day” and coordinate with her team on completing the project.

Last week we received a few pictures from a very excited and proud Karen on the progress of her  School & Playground which is scheduled to open in the near future.

It is with great pleasure and honor that I stood amongst some of the nation’s most ambitious young women. As a young girl, who grew up in Elizabeth, New Jersey, I was unsure of how a fascination for the internet would allow me to lead a life filled with endless possibilities. Starting my career, I was full of nervousness and doubt; nonetheless courage overpowered all my emotions. In a society that wanted me to be anything, I chose to be myself.
