Ways to help

Thank you to all who work so hard to keep this ministry afloat and for the generosity of the good souls whose donations help us help others. Together we are making a difference in Haiti! Please take a minute to see what you can do to give the gift of education and hope to a child.

 

Haitian Outreach is proud to announce that we have joined with the Community Foundation of North Central Massachusetts, CFNCM

The Community Foundation of North Central Massachusetts’ mission is to provide people and organizations with flexible giving options that enable and simplify the achievement of their significant current and permanent charitable goals. Partnering with the CFNMC will:

  1. Allow Haitian Outreach to enjoy all the benefits of being a nonprofit corporation— without the expense and hassle of satisfying IRS and state regulatory requirements.

  2. Reap important benefits, which includes a dedicated online giving portal for our Haitian Outreach fund as well as ongoing marketing exposure.

  3. Will allow Haitian Outreach opportunities to utilize the CFNCM resources for our fundraising and organizational goals.

  4. Give Haitian Outreach a professional site for larger donors to confidently contribute to our organization.

This is in addition to the current donation access via our website: Haitianoutreach.net, which is used by many of our sponsors to donate or pay tuition.

Donating to our fund is easy on the cfncm.org site:


Support our projects

We keep a running "wish list of larger projects we hope to take on. Please consider donating to help us keep our 9 schools and 1-orphanage be the best they can be for the students. The sisters of the Queen Mary Immaculate order in Haiti manage these schools and always have a "wish list" of their own!

 
 

After-School Program

The sisters put this program on hold for several reasons. Our Advisory group will consider other options for the use of the funds raised in 2018.

 

MAINTENANCE & UPGRADES

The sisters are requesting assistance to purchase a new motor for one of their vehicles; and replacement parts for their industrial water filtrations system, which they share with the community.
