Hearts with Haiti works in partnership with the St. Joseph Family to create a caring family for Haitians facing the challenges of poverty or disability and fostering skills and opportunities for those in their community. We are dedicated to providing a brighter, more sustainable future for Haiti.
Founded in 2001, Hearts with Haiti is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization that partners with the St. Joseph Family to create long-term opportunities for Haitians affected by poverty, instability, and disability.
Through this enduring partnership, Hearts with Haiti supports community-centered programs in Jacmel and Port-au-Prince that provide education, residential care, health support, and life-skills development for some of Haiti’s most marginalized children, adults, and families.
For more than two decades, Hearts with Haiti has worked alongside Haitian leadership to ensure continuity of care, institutional stability, and program accountability. Our approach emphasizes Haitian-led daily operations, long-term presence, and sustained investment in local institutions that remain operational even amid ongoing economic and political challenges.
Shifting global and local challenges require new ways of thinking and responding.
Uncertainty—economic, environmental, demographic, and political—remains a constant backdrop. At Hearts with Haiti, meeting the moment means walking alongside the St. Joseph Family with adaptability and purpose—embracing new ideas, stewarding resources with care, and strengthening community. Together, we create pathways of resilience and hope for the future.
