In 1987, The Haitian Project established Louverture Cleary School, a Catholic boarding school in Croix des Bouquets, Haiti.[3] Brian Moynihan was a benefactor of the school; his brother Patrick became director of it.[4] Patrick, formerly a commodities trader for Louis Dreyfus Commodities, was president from 1996 until he stepped down on December 31, 2019.[5]
