2024 Program of Work
PLEASE DONATE today toward our very aggressive Program of Work for 2024.
We need your help to build our 31st and 32nd self-sustaining village in our 26th Haitian city in the last 22 years. Over that span we’ve sheltered and created a self-sufficient existence for 14,400+ desperately poor children and their families.
To be clear, when we say self-sustaining, we mean it. Due to the high unemployment rate in Haiti, we employ ONLY Haitians to build the villages (we take no volunteers) and buy ALL local materials. We import NOTHING into Haiti. In many of the rural areas where we build our villages the unemployment rate can exceed 80%.
Also, we continue to be very involved with domestic homelessness and natural disaster efforts right here in the U.S.
A little more about our 31st and 32nd villages – The Family Village and The HERO Village in Anse Rouge, Haiti we’ve started to build.
Very similar to the village we just completed in Jeremie (pictured below), the new villages will contain 80 solar-powered concrete homes with separate latrines, a water tower to provide clean drinking water, 80 goats (1 per house), 240 chickens (3 per house), and entrance sign showing the name of each village.
As always, ALL elements of the 2024 villages will be provided to the residents at no cost to them.
