Faith Christian Academy

​Pacific H.E.L.P.S. is pleased to announce the formation of Faith Christian Academy, a K-12 Christian school serving the people of Yap and the outer islands.  Faith Christian Academy offers a solid academic education while encouraging spiritual growth through Christian service.  Many of the teachers at Faith Christian Academy are native Micronesians who studied at Harvest Baptist Bible College and have returned to Micronesia to teach the next generation of their people.

​Faith Christian Academy is located on the island of Yap, one of the four main islands comprising the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM).  The school was founded by Paul Zimmer to serve the people of Yap and the many children that inhabit the outer islands of Yap.  In March, 2015, Typhoon Maysak destroyed the school that educated the many children living on the Ulithi Atoll, the main group of outer islands closest to Yap.  As a result, the children who regularly attended school in Ulithi were forced to travel to Yap for their education.  This influx of children to the island of Yap has strained the education system.  Faith Christian Academy offers the opportunity for Yapese and outer islanders alike to experience a Christ-centered educational environment with academic standards that meet or exceed those adopted by the FSM.

Adopt a Child Program
​Your donation of $30.00 per month will enable a child to obtain a Christ-centered education.  How does such a small investment provide a quality Christian education?  The Habele Outer Island Education Fund (or simply “Habele”) is a charitable organization serving K-12 aged students in the Federated States of Micronesia.  Students who meet certain academic requirements quality for the Habele scholarship that pays up to pay for 80% of their tuition to a private school.  Your donation, coupled with the Habele scholarship, will allow a Yapese or outer island child to attend Faith Christian Academy.

Please consider making an online donation to allow native Micronesian children the opportunity to attend Faith Christian Academy.

You can also donate by mail by sending a check to Pacific H.E.L.P.S., 202 W. Belvue Rd., Greenville, SC 29609.
