The Story Behind Quabizion

It began with a question.

During a family trip to Haiti, Pelege Marcellin and his three children noticed that some children in the neighborhood were not attending school.

They began asking questions. What they discovered moved them to act.

Together, they cleaned an unused, neglected space and opened a school, sponsoring children who otherwise lacked access to education.

What began as a family initiative grew into a broader commitment to education and community service.

Quabizion, a name formed from his three children's names, reflects the family's shared role in that journey.

Quabizion's work extends to education, workforce development, and immigrant support, with initiatives focused on English-language learning, Home Health Aide training, CPR education, and practical professional skills.

A pathway to independence

Education. Skills. Independence.

Its mission is to help individuals develop the knowledge and skills needed to pursue greater independence.

Quabizion helps immigrants and families navigate life in the United States through vocational scholarships, practical education, and newcomer support.

The foundation funds scholarships for Home Health Aide and CPR training, helping participants access professional qualifications and employment opportunities.

Its broader initiatives include immigration-related guidance, assistance understanding and applying for healthcare services, navigating banking and insurance systems, and financial literacy education focused on understanding and managing credit.

Together, these services help newcomers build the knowledge, skills, and confidence to establish greater independence.
