Welcome to the Help Brings Hope For Haiti website! We hope that you find the site an easy and enjoyable way to learn more about what we are doing in Haiti and perhaps how you might help us make a difference in this impoverished island.
Since its inception, those of us at HBHH have worked hard to focus our efforts on areas that will not only help the people of Haiti today but also tomorrow and the days into the future. It is important that all aid organizations emphasize the need to give a hand up, not just a hand out, to the people they serve. Self-reliance can be the greatest possible gift we can bring to the people of Haiti.
In addition, since the beginning of our organization, we have been guided by those members of our organization who are from Haiti so that our priorities and efforts are truly in alignment with the most pressing needs.
As you will learn from the site, those needs are diverse - so it is very possible that some, if not all, of our activities are not only addressing critical necessities but are also very close to your own life experiences and goals.
