Changing Lives
After a mission trip, our organization was able to raise $5,000 to help a family of eight move from a small straw hut to a properly-built home.
Crisis Alert
Haiti is facing a crisis like never before. Having gone 3 years without a president, and continued gang violence in and around the capital, it's harder than ever to share the gospel through much needed supplies and ministry work throughout the country. Our organization helps support rural Haitian families and students through Christian mission work.
Help Families and People in Haiti
For the past 3 years, Haiti has suffered from continued gang violence and political instability.
The humanitarian situation is dire, with over five million people facing acute food insecurity, and many experiencing famine conditions. The United Nations and other international organizations have been working to provide aid, but the ongoing violence hampers these efforts. Displacement is also a major issue, with hundreds of thousands of people forced to flee their homes due to gang violence and the lack of security.
Haiti’s political system is paralyzed, with many government positions vacant and no elections held since 2019. The Haitian National Police are understaffed and unable to effectively combat the gangs, leading to a situation where criminal groups operate with near impunity.
If you’re wondering about how to help support Haiti, our nonprofit organization builds houses, conduct mass weddings, sponsor students, and support farmers.
Political Instability in Haiti: Understanding the Crisis
Haiti is currently experiencing significant political instability and a severe humanitarian crisis. Since the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in 2021, the country has faced escalating violence and deteriorating governance. Prime Minister Ariel Henry, who assumed office after Moïse’s death, has struggled to stabilize the situation, with powerful gangs controlling large parts of the capital, Port-au-Prince, and other regions.
The gang violence is a major source of instability, with gangs blockading fuel terminals and engaging in violent clashes, which disrupt daily life and exacerbate the humanitarian crisis. As of now, there are around 200 gangs operating in Haiti, contributing to high rates of kidnappings and murders.
Our Work for Families in Haiti
Our nonprofit organization has been working in Haiti since 2012 with a mission to minister to the needs of Haiti’s poorest citizens.
We want to help the needy, feed the hungry, provide care to the sick, provide better housing to many living in little shacks and in horrible conditions, help as many children as possible get an education, and improve their lives over all.
We want to provide good drinking water in areas that need it and, more importantly, equip the farmers with better ways to grow their crops more efficiently. As a result, they will become self-sufficient and independent.
Our board strongly believes we can reach that vision with God’s help, hard work, dedication, and help from others.
