For our Fly A Haitian Kite Day project, we call on everyone to join us to make this event a huge success. Kite flying is a cherished tradition of Haiti, the Caribbean and other parts of the world. It symbolizes unity, freedom, and celebrates a new Haiti rising from the terrible earthquake that hit on January 12, 2010.
Your participation in Kylti's Fly A Haitian Kite Day will make this year’s event an extraordinary celebration that the world will witness.

Arts Institutions and Nonprofits
Kylti is calling on all arts organizations and nonprofits to help raise funds for this most important cause. We are asking you to delve into your membership repository, and solicit support for this exciting event by asking members to purchase a Haitian kite.
Each association will be eligible for sponsorship benefits by adhering to the following process:
- The association will identify a point person to collect all membership purchases; and
- The association will send its entire membership purchases to Kylti prior to the funding deadline (this will be communicated in the letter that you will receive).
If your association meets the sponsorship criteria, the association will be placed into the appropriate sponsorship category. As a participating sponsor you will receive the benefits offered in the package that will be mailed to you.
Groups
Anyone can create a small group of family, friends, colleagues, or classmates to gather at your hometown park, playground, or backyard to fly a kite on the same day and time as the rest of the world. Heck, have a bar-b-que on that day also.
A minimum of 50 people required to qualify for FREE shipping anywhere in the United States. International organizers, please contact us for shipping information.
A point of contact must be selected to purchase the kites, handle receipt and distribution, coordinate the gathering location, etc. If you would like Kylti to share photos and videos of your event on its Web site, please let us know so we can provide you with a link to upload your materials.
Each organizer will receive their kite for FREE, a Kylti T-shirt, and a surprise gift. If you are interested in leading a group, please contact us for details and registration information.
