We Believe in the Power of Education
Haiti Partners believes that Haiti’s greatest untapped resource of tomorrow are her millions of children. A resource far greater than solar, wind and waves combined. Tapping this enormous source of energy and creative potential for solving Haiti’s problems requires a new education and leadership paradigm.

Bridging the Gap
In our increasingly globalized, interconnected world, a loss of human potential in a developing country like Haiti becomes a loss for everyone. To bridge the gap, we need to bring people together, across borders in genuine partnership, to seek innovative solutions that benefit all of us.
A Community of Changemakers
Over 25 years of in-country experience has taught us that the most fertile terrain for sustainable change in Haiti is through a high quality, community-based education that teaches students and parents active learning strategies and prepare them to be agents of change in their community and country.
