Mission and Program Overview

Mission

In 2024, Ayiti Demen supported its main partners in Haiti with grants from the Roy and Patricia Disney Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the William Talbott Hillman Foundation, the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, the Congregation of St. Joseph of Peace, the Greene Family Foundation, Northern Trust Charitable at the Chicago Community Trust, PayPal Fung Giving, Documentary Educational Resources, the American Online Giving Foundation, and several individual donors.Ayiti Demen supports programs in Haiti through the Foundation for Knowledge and Liberty (FOKAL), Le Centre dArt, and Basketball to Uplift the Youth (Basktbl pou Ankadre Lajens), and advances narrative change through a local media and film company. Ayiti Demens fundraising also supports farmers organizations in southern Haiti, and youth education, training, and mentorship via FOKALs Youth Initiative Project and BAL. This work is central to the Human & Economic Development program because it links economic opportun

The purpose of Friends of FOKAL is to provide support to FOKAL, an independent foundation providing human development and economic activities to local communities and community civil society organizations in the country of Haiti, by raising funds for its purposes and to enhance on an international level, the public awareness andunderstanding of the nature and extent of the problems of the underprivileged of Haiti.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Civic Engagement/ Higher Education/ Urban Agriculture Funds went to support FOKALs initiative to foster emergence of youth leadership in the severely challenged Port-au-Prince district of Martissant where FOKAL has been implementing an ambitious project of urban transformation since 2007, in collaboration with public and international entities as well as with local community organizations, schools, churches and youth groups. Martissant is the most densely populated district of Port-au-Prince. It represents 250,000 inhabitants with over 60% under the age of 25. The preservation of this natural space in an environmentally strategic area of the capital is being transformed into a public space in collaboration with and for the benefit of the local population. The process would also facilitate crucial drainage, preservation of important reserve of natural water, mitigation of risks in the case of natural disasters and would constitute a lead into citizen security in a neighborhood which had for too long been hostage to gang wars. FOKAL is in the process of creating services to the community in the park with an underlying concern for environmental preservation and pedagogy to introduce or reinforce urban agriculture. 5. Major program accomplishment in 2015 Educational Workshop conducted at The Promise of Haiti function work being done on Gingerbread Restoration The earthquake of 2010 prompted FOKAL, the Open Society foundation in Haiti, to launch a project -- in collaboration with HELP (Haitian Education Leadership Program), World Monument Fund, IPW (Institut du Patrimoine Wallon of Belgium), ISPAN among others --whose aim is to restore the gingerbread houses to their lost splendor and preserve them as a link with Haitis past. FOKALs role is to help the owners of these houses to organize themselves. FOKAL is also working to establish a fund for these owners to finance restoration of their homes and to help train craftsmen and architects qualified to restore these structures.$75,000-
