Annual Gratitude Reports

In Haiti, there is a saying: “Se nan tèt ansanm, nou jwenn fòs” (It is in unity that we find strength.) This mindset guided us every step of the way in 2024. Through every challenge and every breakthrough, we moved forward – not alone, but ansanm. Together.

Thanks to the extraordinary commitment of our staff, our partners, and generous supporters like you, our healthcare team provided over 100,000 medical consultations through our clinic and mobile clinics (the celebration of which is pictured on the cover of this report). With support from our Gift-in-Kind partners like Americares, MAP International, CMMB, and Insulin for Life, we imported and distributed just under $49 million in medications, medical supplies, and PPE – free of charge – to Haiti’s most vulnerable patients and 56 partner healthcare facilities. Through this expansive healthcare network, Hope for Haiti’s programs impacted the lives of more than one million children, parents, and grandparents across southern Haiti this past year.

In our 24 partner schools, 7,395 students received a quality education, and 2,294 of them learned vital digital skills in established computer labs. We supported 391 teachers with training and direct salary subsidies because we believe “Edikasyon se kle liberasyon” – education is the key to liberation. And we planted 3,832 seedlings across school-based nurseries, because restoring the earth is the foundation of strong, thriving communities.

Through our Digital Cash Assistance program, women-led households gained the flexibility to meet their families’ most urgent needs. And through 16 Village Savings & Loan Associations, local communities built economic resilience, collectively saving more than $35,000 and empowering nearly 700 women and girls in financial literacy and entrepreneurship.

These numbers tell a story. But behind each one is a name, a family, and a brighter future. Like Kesna, who found life-saving asthma treatment at our healthcare clinic. Like Roselène, a vendor who grew her business through dignity and training. And like Augustin, a school director who continues to shape young minds despite limited resources.

We share this report not just to reflect on how Hope for Haiti is helping solve challenges for children, families, and communities in southern Haiti, but to celebrate what’s possible when we work tèt ansanm. When we lift one another up with our commitment to longterm partnership, resourcing community leaders, and most importantly: believing in the limitless potential of the Haitian people. When we choose hope over despair, and action over silence.
