Community Resilience is at the heart of what we do. And the impowered community we envision is a place where responsible citizens engage themselves in community sustainable development and overall transformation that is beneficial to all its members. Over the past 10 years, we have worked diligently to create income generating activities through direct trades and goat raising for 125 farmers, build over 100 permanent houses and 5 schools as well as equipping the community leaders to prepare for upcoming natural catastrophes.
Currently, we are executing a 1-million-dollar community resilience project for 30,000 community members in Maniche and Marceline, following the 2021 earthquake and the Tropical storm that struck the area. The members are being impacted with drinking water, direct trade coffee production for 50 farmers, first aid emergency storage building, and capacity building trainings and empowerment for over 250 local leaders to respond adequately to future natural disasters and build the communities up.
Your generous contributions can help us building community resilience for more than 10,000 members in Maniche. (450K raised out of 1M).
We educate to transform and impower agents of changes. We engage key stakeholders and provide children with technology-based quality education to ensure integral, biblical value-based, and responsible and productive-oriented development. We envision the children of the rural communities are transformed spiritually, intellectually, and materially to assume their responsibilities as citizens. As a result, they become agents of change of overall community transformation.
Currently, we are impacting 11,000 children enrolled in 43 owned schools. Our quality education program cover full tuition, health assistance to the kids, meals and drinking water at the schools, books, and practical extracurricular trainings in agriculture and entrepreuneurship. For the upcoming year, we expect to sponsor quality education for 15,000 children.
With your generous giving, you can send a kid to school for as little as $20 a month. (1.553.400 or 57% raised out of 2,730,441 USD, missing 43% or 1,177,041.11)
90% of jobs worldwide will have a digital component by 2030 and forecasts show that nearly 1 billion youth will not have the skills needed to access quality employment. Our goal is to bridge this gap and improve learners’ engagement, sustain their growth, and enhance teachers and school staff effectiveness.
For the past 4 years, most children in Haiti missed an average 3 months’ worth of academic learning due to political instability and social unrest. And there has been no technological mechanism for them to catch up with their learning deficits. We are ensuring that 15,000 children stay connected with academic learning both at home and in classroom settings.
To do that, we are gradually equipping 40 schools and 7 technology enhancement centers with equipment like screens, laptops and tablets, solar power energy, and internet access in order to bridge the education divide for children across rural areas in Haiti to amplify the impact on teaching and learning. Technology-integrated education is a must-have component in today’s learning process, mostly for children in rural communities across Haiti. And the time to do it is now.

Hunger is bearing down on most families in Haiti. On top of that, rampant inflation further weakens most household purchasing power, even for primary needs like food and drinking water. As of now, the United Nations and World Food Program’s findings estimated over 5 million Haitians, including a record three million children, need humanitarian support in 2023. A staggering 44 % of Haiti’s population, or 4.35 million people, are acutely food insecure. And adding to this dire situation is “terrorizing children and families and destroying livelihoods amid unprecedented hunger, malnutrition” according to UNICEF.
Among those hit the hardest are Haitians living under $ 1 a day in rural areas. They are the groups that P&A is working with. The children and their families cannot hold any longer as growing needs for food are becoming more pressing.
You can feed a child with one meal a day for as little as $25 a month. And with Parole et Action matching fund, we can serve 2 million meals a year.
Quality education requires suitable infrastructures. For the past 36 years, Parole et Action has built 30 schools or building a new school almost each year in very remote areas across Haiti. And half a million students have received quality education in these facilities. Over 50% of the schools’ facilities are in need for improvement like roof repair, new school furnitures like benches, chairs, and lecture boards. Other needs are drinking water at the schools, hygiene points for hand washing, and cistern for water storage.
Recreations in schools also play a vital role in their learnings. Equipments for playgrounds and sports fields are also needed to provide the students the most positive learning experience possible.
Help a child to learn better today in a safer and more attractive school facility. (25% or 25K raised out of 150K)
