Knowing the way to move from poverty to development is through education, a consortium of several black colleges and Universities in the US has decided to help rebuild the largest State University in Haiti.

Among these colleges and Universities, you find: Florida A & M University, South Carolina State, Morgan State, Howard University, Miles College, Central State, Virginia State, North Carolina A&T, Fort Valley State, Tennessee State and Jackson State.

There are seven priorities that the Black colleges and Universities consortium has identified and had agreed to help Haiti State University with. They include: rebuilding campuses, funding new professorships, providing student scholarships, developing student housing, boosting research into renewable energy and alternative medicine, upgrading technical capabilities and developing research programs.

On another positive note, another consortium was already formed by the University of Massachusetts Boston to help Haiti's private as well as public Universities.
