Fort-Liberté, Haiti - October 2025 - The Don Bosco Technical Centre (DBTec) in Fort-Liberté opened a 60 kVA solar power plant on Thursday 16 October, marking an important step forward in the commitment of the Salesians of Don Bosco in Haiti to sustainable development and the promotion of quality technical education. The ceremony was held in the presence of Fr Morachel Bonhomme, Superior of the Salesian Vice-Province of Haiti (HAI), on a canonical visit to this educational institution, surrounded by Salesians, staff, teachers, students and technicians who contributed to the project which was made possible thanks to funding from Salesian Missions in New Rochelle (United States). The facility, designed to provide a stable and environmentally friendly power supply, will reduce the centre's dependence on public electricity and fuel generators, which are often expensive and intermittent. The Director of the DBTec centre, Fr Jean-Paul Mésidor, SDB, expressed his gratitude to Salesian Missions and the technical partners involved, emphasising that ‘this 60 kVA plant is a sustainable investment in the service of Haitian youth, vocational training and local development.’
