Educating children and offering skills training for adults to break  the cycle of poverty and create stronger families, citizens, and leaders.

The literacy rate in Haiti is only 48 percent, while one third of girls over six-years old never go to school, and 60 percent of children abandon school before sixth grade. This makes education one of the critical and key parts of God’s Vision for Haiti’s ministry.

Our aim is to establish a K-12 Christian school to educate children in the communities we serve. Enrollment preference will be given to children of foster homes and church families. For the 2023-2024 academic year, GVFH will open, in Cambry, God’s Vision For Haiti Christian Academy – a preschool and fundamental school.

Feeding for A Lifetime

Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. With a mostly unskilled workforce, the average worker salary is $55 per month, resulting in 80 percent of the population living under the poverty line, and more than half, or 54 percent living in abject poverty. This is the impetus behind God’s Vision for Haiti’s development of a work-skill training program.

Haiti continues to stagnate due in part to the shortsightedness of perpetuating the “give a fish a day/feed for one day” ministry model. Rather than feeding a fish a day, we want to teach “how to fish,” helping those who learn, to feed themselves and their families for a lifetime.

The school will be built on property presently owned by God’s Vision for Haiti—see projects page for an overview of the master plan for the school, transitional foster-care home, and work-skill center.
