Mercy & Sharing is one of the only organizations in Haiti that takes in disabled kids. We have been working in Haiti since 1994 to help abandoned, orphaned and disabled children have what they need to survive and thrive. By providing money for us to purchase a vehicle, you are helping 136 orphans have transportation for medical care. 70 of these children are disabled and need surgeries and special treatment. Each donation "builds" the car -- one part at a time!

VIDA is working with our partners, Medshare and COADHA to bring surgical supplies and medical equipment to hospitals operating in Haiti after the devastating 7.0 earthquake
This project supports critically ill children in Haiti's orphanages, providing treatment that each child would not otherwise receive. The Red Thread Promise sponsors ill children by funding extensive medical treatment, hospitalizations and providing medications to complete each child's treatment. By intervening at an early age, the children have a better chance of a full recovery from their condition and an improved state of health growing up in the poorest country in the Western hemisphere.

We are a team of students at Illinois Tech (IIT) working to improve the quality of primary education in Haiti. Our project addresses the lack of electrical power in schools with a clean, replicable, affordable solar solution, initially targeting multiple schools in Lascahobas that received laptops. We will deploy our solar solution at two pilot schools and are working with local partners on the ground to ensure project sustainability and scalability-to bring solar power to schools nationwide.
