Hope Restored

“Distributed to the board members who are given time to review and ask questions, then the board votes to accept it.”

“The board of directors reviewed the job description for an executive director position, discussed and deliberated an approprate compensation for an organization our size, while taking into consideration board member's knowledge and experience with other businesses and non-profits.”

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request.”

“Missions trips - each year, several opportunities are available for individuals to travel to haiti to be a part of the on the ground work taking place in the community of morne oge, just outside of the city of jacmel. Those who join us on a trip to haiti will get to put their personal skill set to work to help further restore haiti's long term purposes. Trip members can work with construction teams on the building projects in process, work in the kitchens with the haitian cooks who prepare food for the feeding program, serve members of the community by providing training seminars on topics in which they have expertise (education, health and nutrition, character building and leadership, etc.), work alongside our medical clinic staff, and have (see schedule o) an opportunity to interact with the child they sponsor and their family.”

“Sponsorships/feeding program - mal-nutrition and lack of education are two of the biggest issues the youth of haiti struggle to overcome. Because there is no free public education in haiti, many haitian children are not afforded the opportunity for consistent schooling, and therefore grow up to be unemployed and unable to support themselves. In an effort to confront these two major areas of need, we have created the restore haiti child sponsorship program. This program allows donors to help a specific child by providing funds for school tuition, uniforms, and testing fees. In addition, the child is admitted to our feeding program where they receive a hot meal, beverage, and multivitamin each day. Other benefits include access to medical clinics, and in some cases extra (see schedule o) financial assistance for their families specific needs. Sponsors are also given the opportunity to connect personally with the child through photos, notes, and the opportunity to help provide school supplies or send a christmas gift each year. Many sponsors also choose to visit the child by going on one of our planned trips to haiti each year.”
