Building resilient communities in rural Haiti

For 16 years, the Good Samaritan Foundation has been providing long-term aid to rural Haitian communities.

 

The Good Samaritan Foundation of Haiti is committed to providing quality education and food security to the communities we support in rural Haiti. Our educational programs and sustainable agriculture programs are interlinked, with half of all food for school meals produced on-site at our school farm.  We believe every Haitian child should be educated and well-nourished to give them an opportunity for a better future.

Educating for the future

Our two schools, one in La Hatte, Île à Vache, and one near Petit Goâve, are our flagship education programs. With almost 600 students, a daily lunch program, and many extracurricular educational activities, our community support programs for people of all ages help these communities achieve economic stability.

Growing for the future

Our sustainable agricultural program on Île à Vache is growing food for the nutritious meals in our lunch program. By committing to local community agriculture, we have eliminated malnutrition in our students and improved people’s diets in our community. With six fields growing food and two henhouses established since we began the program in 2015, we are growing the foundations for sustainable community on the island of Île à Vache.
