OUR STRONGEST DESIRE IS TO PARTNER WITH LOCAL LEADERS, CREATING COMMUNITY-BASED SOLUTIONS THAT ENGAGE ALL STAKEHOLDERS IN A STRATEGIC AND HOLISTIC APPROACH TO POVERTY ALLEVIATION. OUR PROGRAM VISION IS ROOTED IN CONNECTING COMMUNITIES WITH EDUCATION, HEALING COMMUNITIES THROUGH HEALTHCARE AND WATER, AND EMPOWERING COMMUNITIES THROUGH INFRASTRUCTURE AND ECONOMY. BEYOND THESE FIVE CORE AREAS, HOPE FOR HAITI STRIVES FOR A HIGHER QUALITY OF WHOLE LIFE, AND WORKS TO ADDRESS CHILD PROTECTION, SOCIAL JUSTICE AND ENVIRONMENTAL SENSITIVITY WITHIN ALL OUR SUPPORTED PARTNERS. BELOW ARE SELECTED PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS FROM 2015 - 2016 THAT REFLECT OUR MISSION OF IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE HAITIAN PEOPLE, PARTICULARLY CHILDREN: EDUCATION: A LACK OF INSTITUTIONAL OVERSIGHT AND STABILITY, COUPLED WITH THE CHALLENGES OF INSUFFICIENT FUNDING AND TRAINING REMAIN PREVALENT WITHIN THE HAITIAN EDUCATION SYSTEM. AS A RESULT, YOUNG HAITIANS ARE AT SEVERE RISK OF NOT RECEIVING THE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS REQUIRED TO EFFECTIVELY ENTER THE LABOR FORCE. HOPE FOR HAITI WAS FOUNDED ON THE PRINCIPAL OF QUALITY EDUCATION FOR ALL OF HAITI'S CHILDREN; THE LEGACY REMAINS IN OUR EDUCATION FOCUS AND IS THE FOUNDATION OF ALL OF OUR PROGRAMS TODAY. PROGRAM CHALLENGES: THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT IS ALARMING: THE AVERAGE HAITIAN HAS RECEIVED LESS THAN 5 YEARS OF FORMAL SCHOOLING AND 50% OF THE ADULT POPULATION IS ILLITERATE. MOST SCHOOLS IN HAITI RECEIVE MINIMAL GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT AND ARE NOT PROPERLY FUNDED. 80% OF HAITIAN TEACHERS RECEIVE LITTLE TO NO TRAINING.

ACCORDING TO THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO), WITH A POPULATION OF NEARLY 11 MILLION, HAITI SPENT ONLY $131 IN 2015 ON HEALTHCARE PER CAPITA, CONTRASTED WITH $9,403 IN THE UNITED STATES.

PROGRAM CHALLENGES: 47% OF HAITIANS LACK ACCESS TO BASIC HEALTHCARE SERVICES; 50% LACK ACCESS TO BASIC DRUGS.
