Project Overviews
The mission of Mountains of Hope for Haiti is to encourage, support, and empower rural communities toward greater self-determination and sustainability. We do this by working with the community to identify basic needs and provide funding in support of community projects which help address those needs. Financial support comes from local churches, individuals, and other sponsors.
In addition, volunteer teams have provided a relational connection to the community as well as offering both generalized and specialized skills to address specific projects and community needs. Unfortunately, due to the recent political and social unrest, volunteer teams have been put on hold. However, Mountains of Hope continues to provide support for the Clinic, Schools, Farmer’s Association, and respond to emergency needs.
We invite you see what we have done in the past and to work and pray for a time when we can once again be with our brothers and sister in Haiti.
