About us

Our main goal is to enhance the lives of the residents in the picturesque village of Cotes-de-Fer, Haiti, by being the hands and feet of Jesus. We are inspired by Matthew 25:40 “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.

Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to help improve the lives of the residents in the village of Cotes-de-Fer, Haiti and surrounding areas serving as the hands and feet of Jesus. We are inspired by Matthew 25:40 “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

A breake down of how what we do

Supporting the Vulnerable

Our team on the ground and abroad are committed to reaching out to the most vulnerable members of the community, including the elderly and the handicapped. Through our various programs, we offer essential support, whether it's healthcare, nutrition, or simply companionship, to enhance their quality of life.

Empowering the Youth


Our dedication to the future lies in our young people. Education is a powerful tool for breaking the cycle of poverty, as stated in Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." By supporting the education of youth in Cotes-de-Fer, we aim to equip them with the skills and knowledge they need to become self-sufficient and contribute to the growth of their community.

Comprehensive School Health Program

Through our Grandma Martha Hygiene Kits for Girls program, we recognize that education extends beyond textbooks. Partnering with local schools, we establish a Comprehensive School Health Program aimed at students aged 8-14. This initiative ensures that students receive both educational and health and wellness support necessary for their holistic development, helping them prepare for and be ready before they reach puberty. Our program delivers School Health education to both boys and girls, with a special emphasis on menstrual hygiene and puberty education, ensuring that they are equipped with the knowledge and resources they need as they transition into adolescence.

Sustainable Growth Projects


Sustainable Growth Initiatives: To achieve enduring impact, we work alongside local community leaders to pinpoint and support sustainable growth initiatives capable of lifting the community out of extreme poverty. These initiatives span across agriculture, entrepreneurship, and infrastructure development, fostering long-term prosperity and resilience.

Women's Empowerment Program

We offer essential financial training to local women facing adversity, coupled with microloans for business startups. We stand by their side every step of the way, ensuring their success and fostering their independence. Through this support, they are empowered to contribute to the overall well-being of their families and communities.

School clean water initiative WASH

As part of this initiative, our team delivers 10 five-gallon jugs of water weekly to local schools in our program, ensuring that students have access to safe and clean drinking water throughout the day. By implementing this initiative, we not only address immediate health concerns but also promote a conducive learning environment. Access to clean water empowers students to focus on their studies without the worry of waterborne illnesses, ultimately fostering a brighter future for the entire community. Through the Clean Water Initiative for Schools, we're paving the way for healthier, more prosperous educational environments, one sip at a time.


We actively collaborate with the local water and sanitation agent to boost our efforts in serving our schools. Our partnership includes regular visits to schools for thorough evaluations of their water and sanitation needs. By closely working with local authorities, we strive to provide sustainable resources for enduring improvements in the school systems of Cotes-de-Fer and surrounding communities.

We firmly believe that every child deserves access to clean water and proper sanitation facilities. By instilling in them the values of responsibility and stewardship, we aim to teach the importance of caring for their environment and each other. Through these combined efforts, we are committed to creating a better future for our children and empowering them to thrive in a healthy and conducive learning environment.


our commitment!

 
"Hope for a Village is committed to making a significant impact in the areas of clean water access, menstrual education, hygiene education, health education in school systems, and home health care. With additional funding, we have the capacity to expand and enhance our efforts in the following ways:

  •  Scaling Clean Water Initiatives: Funding will enable us to implement more clean water projects in underserved communities, reaching a larger number of elderly individuals who lack access to clean and safe drinking water. We can invest in advanced water purification technologies and infrastructure, ensuring sustainability and widespread impact.
  •  Menstrual Education and Hygiene: Additional resources will allow us to conduct more comprehensive menstrual education programs, providing essential knowledge and sanitary products to elderly individuals and girls in schools. We can organize workshops, distribute hygiene kits, and promote menstrual hygiene practices effectively.
  •  Health Education in Schools: With funding, we can expand our health education programs in schools, creating curriculum materials, training educators, and reaching a broader student population. This will empower young people with valuable health knowledge, leading to healthier communities in the long run.
  •  Home Health Care Services: Funding will enable us to establish and operate home health care services for the elderly and vulnerable individuals in need. We can hire trained caregivers, acquire medical equipment, and provide essential medical services, ensuring the well-being of those who cannot access healthcare facilities easily.
  •  Community Outreach and Partnerships: Additional financial resources will allow us to engage in more extensive outreach efforts, collaborate with local organizations, and build stronger partnerships with government agencies and other stakeholders. This will create a synergistic effect and maximize the impact of our initiatives.
  •  Monitoring and Evaluation: We will invest in robust monitoring and evaluation systems to track the progress of our programs, measure their effectiveness, and make data-driven improvements. This will ensure accountability and transparency in the use of funds.
  •  Capacity Building: Funding will support the training and development of our staff and volunteers, ensuring that we have the necessary expertise and manpower to manage and expand our initiatives effectively.

In summary, with additional funding, Hope for a Village is well-equipped to scale its efforts and make a lasting impact in the areas of clean water access, menstrual education, hygiene education, health education in schools, and home health care. We are committed to utilizing funds efficiently and transparently to improve the well-being of elderly individuals and the broader community."

Our goals

Our goals

At Hope for a Village, we are not only dedicated to addressing immediate needs but also committed to creating lasting change in the lives of the residents of Cotes-de-Fer, Haiti. Our long-term goals reflect our vision for a brighter future:

  1. Building Trust and Relationships: Our first and foremost long-term goal is to build trust and deep relationships with the people of the Cotes-de-Fer area. Through our services and unwavering commitment to their well-being, we aim to foster a sense of trust and community. This trust opens doors to share the Gospel, allowing us to bring spiritual guidance and hope to those we serve.
  2. Ensuring Access to Menstrual Products: Education is a powerful tool, but it's effective only when every child has access to it. To achieve this, we are dedicated to ensuring that no girl misses a day of school due to the inability to afford menstrual products. Our goal is to make these products readily available in every school in the region, empowering girls to pursue their education without hindrance.
