Our work in
Haiti
Construction is underway for our orphanage, Gio’s House. At its completion, the building will house 40 boys and girls providing them safe housing, nutrition, healthcare and spiritual services. Your donation to this project will allow us to purchase building materials and offset the cost of construction.
Gio's House
We host supply drives through the year to collect food items and school supplies and deliver those to the children and community members of Haiti twice a year in August and January.
Supply Drives
Of the approximately 3.5 million school-age children in Haiti, 800,000 do not have access to schooling. Due to the inability to afford schooling fees, the average child receives only 5 years of education. Through our scholarship, we aim to offset these fees so that more children can receive the right to education.
Education
Access to healthcare is at an all-time low, predominantly among the poorest in Haiti. Gio’s House will assist in providing quality healthcare to those who need it most at no cost. Once complete, the Gio's House of Hope Orphanage will be home to on-site primary and preventative care services for the children and community of Haiti.
Healthcare
Summer Camp
This summer, we launched our first Summer Camp program for children in Haiti Petion-Ville Publin. Two days a week (Monday and Friday) Gio's staff and volunteers worked to provide children meals, Gospel lessons, games and activities, and more. The program also identifies children who are not going to school so that we can partner with local Catholic school, Communaute Saint Francois D'assise to provide tuition for those children. Your support will allow us to continue the summer program next year.
After School Program
During the school year, we host an After School Program for children in Haiti Petion-Ville Publin. Three days a week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) Gio's staff and volunteers spend time with students after school to provide them meals, help with homework, activities, school supplies, tuition assistance and more. Your support allows us to assist the children of Haiti all school year long ensuring their success and quality education.

Once complete, the Gio’s House Orphanage will provide the Gospel, housing and education to 40 children in a caring environment in Haiti.

With the help of local businesses and other non-profit organizations, Gio’s House provides free meals to children and families in the community in need. Monetary or food donations allow us to distribute food biannually in Haiti.
