La Source is a communal section in the Corail Arrondissement, in the Grand'Anse department of Haiti. It was mentioned in a recent documentary film called The Philosopher Kings. One former resident who has emigrated to the United States, Josue Lajeunesse, has been active in bringing a clean water source closer to the village, whose residents had previously needed to travel to a nearby mountain for water, a twenty-mile round trip. Currently, he is trying to provide a permanent and reliable water system utilizing cisterns for each house so the water is even more accessible. After the water system is implemented in 2010, he would also like to provide the village with electricity, in the form of solar panels, and computers.
