about voices and actions for haiti
Voices and Actions for Haiti is a United Charitable Program with 501 (c) 3 status through the United Charitable organization. Our team and advisors have worked in Haiti for over 25 years. We have come to realize that the best way to improve life for the people of this proud but impoverished nation is to help people help themselves through education, and by making available the means for women and men to support themselves and their families. We work to provide a "hand up" rather than a "hand out" to enable people to realize their dreams .... sufficient food, education, a home.
This 8 minute video will tell you of the change Voix et Actions is creating in Haiti through interviews with real people - the people they have helped.

ABOUT VOIX et ACTIONS (our Haitian partners)
Voix et Actions was formed after the terrible earthquake of January 2010. Initially a group of high school friends (now adult men and women) came together to assure each other of their safety, but they quickly realized their real purpose was to help their fellow Haitians. Since that time, acting as volunteers, they have mentored students; sponsored health clinics; taught classes; designed and operated a micro-loan program in Trouin, Haiti; designed and operated a goat breeding and distribution program; and established a pig farm to help graduates of the St. Marc Trade School form their own businesses. |
