About this Fundraiser

Thank you for your participation in a Help One Now Learning Journey! The Help One Now ethos is to remain invisible in our communities and focus our efforts on resourcing key leaders instead. Help One Now leads a limited number of Learning Journeys for committed, long-term supporters (Church Partners, Child Sponsors, Foundation members, and Love Hope Partners) each year. On these Journeys, emphasis will be placed on connecting with a community, building deep relationships with the local leaders, and brainstorming how you can unlock your human capital to partner together and support their work back home.

On this trip, we are excited for you to:

●  meet and fall in love with our local leaders and the children they serve

●  learn from our local leaders by hearing their stories and engaging in their communities. Doing this helps us, the visitors, understand the unique issues in different environments

●  see the impact of our projects firsthand and gain a new understanding of how complex working in these communities can be

●  become advocates of the country, people and orphans that you meet when you return home. You are the tribe; we need you to run with these stories and partner with us to make an impact

On this trip, you will be able to meet some of our leaders and fully experience some of the communities in which they serve. You will be able to see first hand how our leaders and their teams work to care for orphans and vulnerable children, empower families through education and community development, and dream ahead to find long-term solutions to help bring an end to the cycle of poverty. We will spend our time visiting with some of our key Haiti leaders; Jean Alix Paul, Gaétan Alcegaire and Jean St. Cyr. We will visit their schools, churches, and other community development initiatives to hear their stories, understand their vision, and see first-hand the effects of their work and our partnerships together. 

Thursday March 01: You will arrive in Port-au-Prince, the capital city of Haiti, and travel 40 minutes to Yahve Shamma, a community development initiative of Help One Now located in Pétionville, Haiti. You will spend the day in Pétionville to visit Agape and meet with Jean Alix. 

Friday March 02: You will spend time visiting Jean Alix's businesses and St.Cyr's clinics and school/church. You will visit Yahve Shamma and Williamson Adrian Academy (a two story, 14 classroom schoolhouse built with funds from our first Legacy Project!)

Saturday March 03: You will hop on a quick 30 minute flight to Cap-Haitien, a city located on the north side of Haiti. You will spend the entire day in Ferrier Village, an anti-trafficking and education initiative of Help One Now. You will also have the opportunity to hear stories and tour the village and school as well as spend time with the kids. 

Sunday March 04: You will spend the morning at the beach and then will head to the airport after lunch to depart Cap-Haitien and return home!
