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. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1582564697073-BZEJXFH2C908Q39YAXUA/Haiti-Ile-A-Vache-34.jpg Home - A community of international supporters Our educational and agricultural programs are meeting needs in our communities in rural Haiti.

This small island off the southern coast of Haiti has about 15,000 inhabitants. The school we established on the island at the village of La Hatte now serves 270 students, employs full-time teachers, and provides a nutritious meal to each student daily. Since 2017, we have also produced about 50% of the food for this lunch program on the island with our agriculture programs. We believe that the children of Haiti, no matter how remote their community, deserve education and nutritious, sustainably produced food. Our activities, which now include a second school near Petit Goâve with an additional 270 students, are focused providing opportunity for our students. Our vision is to provide Haitian children with the skills and opportunities they need to live healthy, productive lives in their own communities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1583246835480-SNHHUXW0JIPY8EZZ6A6Z/IAV+map.png About - Île à Vache Île à Vache, meaning “Cow Island” in French, is a 20 square mile island off of Haiti’s southern coast. Located across a strait from the southern port of Les Cayes, infrastructure on the island is very limited and everything is brought on wooden boats. In fact, Île à Vache is one of the last places in Haiti where traditional wooden sailboats are still constructed and used for daily life. For the 15,000 inhabitants, these transport costs increase the cost of living and result in very little infrastructure for transport, and little to no electrical, educational, and public health infrastructure. Many needs must be met by travelling to Les Cayes, but for many islanders, this is out of reach. Very few nonprofits operate on Île à Vache, which makes GSF take our mission there all the more seriously. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1583247660634-0NCD1XB3TQN76Z2DCRBD/School.jpg About - Morne Tapion The IMECT school (Institution of Classical Education of Tapion) near Petit Goâve is located on the slopes of the mountain of Morne Tapion in western Haiti. During the 2010 earthquake, the previous school on this site was completely destroyed, and GSF stepped in to manage and rebuild the new IMECT school, starting with a temporary building. Thanks to generous private donations, a permanent building was constructed including a larger kitchen to support our meal program. https://www.goodsamaritanofhaiti.com/education daily 0.75 2023-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/a879ac1b-9fbc-4e16-b502-9f07c0ac2098/IMECTnewschool.jpg Education - Make it stand out The brand new IMECT school building, 2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1583248810292-QUDWH22GXZWQJFS0VA39/Ile-A-Vache-20150328-510.jpg Education https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1583424269558-UH73R7TXAR49FQTB3JAU/Ile-A-Vache-20150406-927.jpg Education https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/d65f3528-37e4-45be-8868-e83d7ab34782/IMECTrebuild.jpg Education - Make it stand out Hard at work building the new IMECT school building, 2022 https://www.goodsamaritanofhaiti.com/sustainable-agriculture daily 0.75 2020-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1583250002553-2RLKM7M9PH74EBPJMM5R/chick.jpg Sustainable Agriculture https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1583250019507-R37JWJGPKRFQDKTGB8HS/moringa.jpg Sustainable Agriculture https://www.goodsamaritanofhaiti.com/supporters daily 0.75 2023-03-29 https://www.goodsamaritanofhaiti.com/donate daily 0.75 2023-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e480a7f07eced29ee3ff8a0/1609267986403-GBFPG2UF0TUJHVHMOIB4/genny.jpg Donate - So how can you help? Donating just $75 per year (US) pays for the books, equipment, and tuition required by one child! Increased to, $150 per year this allows that child to have a daily hot meal, 200 days a year. The total cost of school with lunch, per child per day, is approximately 75¢. Donating $25 per year pays for books and uniform for a child whose parents could not provide them, even though school is free. Just $100 pays for one day of school lunches per school. $100 would also pay a month’s salary for one of the staff. Donating $1,000 will pay the salary of a Kindergarten teacher for the 10 month school year. $2,500 will sponsor an entire classroom including desks, books, and teacher, for the year. $10-20,000 will build our next and final classroom (of 12) to reduce crowding and continue to make our schools the best in the district! As you can see, no matter your ability to give, you can make a huge difference in the life of a child.
