OUR PROJECTS

Check out the projects that support our work in Haiti and the
projects we manage to support our community in Haiti.

TEN FOR THEM

$10 for Them is Hope to Haiti’s newest effort to care for the children of Haiti.

Hope to Haiti is currently operating four orphanages in Haiti. Each orphanage operational costs are between $1500 and $2000 a month to operate. We are calling this new effort the un-orphanage. We have identified several dozen children near our schools that have been left orphaned and / or abandoned. Many people have accepted these children into their homes. Our $10 for Them project will help these families support these children. Would you consider supporting this effort at $10, $20, $50 or even $100 a month to ensure each of these children will be fed on a daily basis.

$10 a month will help save a child’s life. Would you please consider supporting one of these precious children.

"Cards With a Purpose"

Meet the Wonderful
‘10 Cards of Hope’ That Will Change Your Life Each Month
(And Change the Life of One Orphan in Haiti Forever)

What Are

10 Cards of Hope?

First, we start with beautiful hand-drawn artwork from Haitian orphanages that we support printed on top quality recycled paper. And they come 10 to a pack. (Aha!)

But even better is we donate $10.00 per month going to support one Haitian child in desperate need. Haiti is now the poorest country in the world. And with your purchase you’ll be providing the essentials of food, clean water, shelter, clothing and even an education.

HEART TO HAITI

Have you ever seen a child’s small fingers busily guiding a crayon over a sheet of paper? Or observed a child sinking their hands into a moist ball of clay, kneading and squeezing and forming sculptures? If yes, then you have seen the concentration on these children’s faces, and the joyful expressions of art explored. You have witnessed how deeply they are affected by experiencing creative art.

When a child creates, they are nourishing their entire being- training their linguistic, logical and mathematical skills, stimulating and developing imagination and critical thinking. Art is an amazing educational tool! It increases motivation to learn and heightens children’s self-esteem; it makes them feel good about what they have to say and how they say it and helps them to learn how to work cooperatively.

It is therefore vitally important to integrate Art into a child’s life. Sadly though, many children from deprived backgrounds, particularly in a developing country such as Haiti, are not given the time, space and resources to play and create. As soon as they are able to walk, they have to watch over their siblings while their parents are away working. As soon as their bodies are capable of manual work, they spend their entire days helping their parents to earn money. We at Hope to Haiti are committed to bring art opportunities and self-expression for the vulnerable children of Haiti.

Make a donation today to our efforts. We feel a childhood should be a time of playful expression and celebration of self and life.

H2H Art Therapy Project

Our HeART to Haiti project is committed to promoting healing and encouraging hope for Haitian orphans through the use of creative arts.
We are dedicated to helping abandoned children develop self respect and confidence. We provide local artists and educators with the building blocks to develop healthy creative communities. Our goal is passionate, fun and joyful art making.

HOUSING PROJECTS

The need for housing in Haiti is great, and rebuilding after one of the worst urban natural disasters in history will take time. Challenges to progress in the shelter sector include:

Lack of Available Stock: The lack of adequate affordable housing has been a longstanding issue in Haiti; the destruction caused by the 2010 earthquake exacerbated the problem. According to Government of Haiti estimates, over the next 10 years, the Port-au-Prince region alone will require up to 500,000 additional housing units to make up for the pre-earthquake housing shortage, replace stock lost during the disaster, and accommodate the significant amount of expected urban growth.

Unclear Land Tenure: According to Government of Haiti estimates, as much as 70 percent of Port-au-Prince’s pre-quake population lived in informal settlements.

In many cases, land tenure was governed by a range of informal arrangements involving renters and owners. This included multiple layers of ownership, where one person may have owned the land and another the building, while a third person rented living space. Identifying clear ownership is the crucial first step to rebuilding.

Lack of Governmental Capacity: The Government of Haiti continues to rebuild after many of its most experienced civil servants were killed in the earthquake.

Hope to Haiti will continue its strategic alliance with the Caring House Project Foundation to address this ongoing need. Through 2016 we have built 210 homes, 5 community centers, provided clean water, and livestock to help sustain our new communities.

Help us house Haiti’s people.

SCHOOL FEEDING PROGRAMS

Almost 80 percent of the country is unemployed. Two-thirds of the labor force do not have formal jobs. Years of wholesale tree removal and poor agricultural practices have left the environment ravaged. With the ecosystem dying and soils depleted, Haitians have limited sources for clean water or fertile land for their crops.

EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE.

Many Haitian children are severely malnourished because they go day-to-day without food–or in an effort to fill their stomachs, they eat ashes, pebbles, goat feces or whatever they can find.

Hope to Haiti is focused on improving the lives of Haitians, especially the children suffering as they grow under these extreme hardships.

Astonishingly, one in ten Haitian children never live to see their fifth birthday. Haiti’s child mortality rate is among the worst in the world. For the poor, finding food is top priority. Many children and most adults do not have a full meal every day.

Hope to Haiti is taking food and water to some of the most remote villages on the island.

Children in our feeding programs receive a hot meal every day–that’s food for over a thousand children daily! For many, it’s the only meal they will eat that day. Beyond filling their bellies, these nutritious meals fuel their developing minds and bodies giving them a chance of reaching their full potential.

Please carefully consider becoming a partner.
Your support will save a life!

CLEAN WATER PROJECTS

The Problem:The UN estimates that almost one-tenth of the global disease burden could be prevented by improving water supply, sanitation, hygiene, and management of water resources.

But Haiti, like many developing nations around the world, is currently devastated by a lack of clean water and the systems that provide it.

Most water sources are contaminated with human waste because of the absence of a sewage sanitation system. Still, that dirty water is often used for cooking and drinking – exposing men, women, and children to the germs that cause cholera, typhoid, hepatitis, chronic diarrhea, and other waterborne diseases.

In Haiti, contaminated water is the leading cause of infant mortality and illness in children. Haiti has the highest infant mortality rate in the western hemisphere. The Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO) reported that more than half of all deaths in Haiti were due to water-borne gastrointestinal diseases. Nearly every water source in Haiti has become contaminated with human waste.

Cholera was introduced in Haiti in October 2010, According to the Pan American Health Organization, as of 21 November 2013, there had been 689,448 cholera cases in Haiti, leading to 8448 deaths.

A solution: Provide a community water source.

In Haiti we are constructing water towers to provide access to clean water in the communities where we have schools under or care. These clean water locations are managed by our H2H school staff, with profits from the sale of clean water going back to supplement the cost of our feeding programs at that particular location.

Bring clean water to Haiti.
