We are so grateful for you.

As always, we ask that you keep Haiti in your prayers.

 

  • 4 out of 5 Haitians live on less than $2 per day

  • An estimated 5.2 million, almost half the population, need humanitarian support 

  • The combination of deforestation/erosion, mountainous terrain, tropical weather, and earthquakes leads to frequent environmental and weather-related disasters

  • Over 200,000 Haitians have become internally displaced due to gang violence


Espérance et Vie, a Haitian NGO, is addressing these needs by responding to the most pressing humanitarian needs of the Terrier Rouge community.  Its efforts include food distributions, disaster recovery, and, most recently, helping displaced Haitians relocate from less safe places in Haiti.  The NGO played a critical role in controlling the spread of COVID-19 with a mask and soap distribution program.  It also has a homebuilding program to build houses for those living in the worst conditions in Terrier Rouge.  Finally, the NGO is expanding its cultivation of its farmland to provide greater food security for St. Barthélémy School and the Terrier Rouge community.  Espérance et Vie is uniquely positioned in Terrier Rouge to address these needs, as it is also the umbrella organization for the St. Barthélémy School and Clinique Espérance et Vie and can coordinate the resources of these facilities to maximize overall positive impact on the Terrier Rouge community.
