The Haitian Timoun Foundation is not just an organization, or a nice cause. HTF is people. It’s young Haitians, former street kids and enslaved restaveks, realizing their worth and strength. Building on their talents and opportunities. Dreaming dreams. Overcoming obstacles. Choosing to stay in Haiti and transform their lives, their families, their communities, their country, and their world.
HTF is also North Americans, partnering with Haitians, learning from Haitians, believing in the worth and potential of Haitian children, helping to transform those lives – even as their own lives are being transformed.
The Haitian Timoun Foundation is a non-profit organization with a simple, Christ-centered vision: “That ALL May Have LIFE!” All administrative costs are covered. That means, 100% of contributions go directly to help Haitian kids. We only partner with Haitian-run organizations with a proven track record, transparent accounting, life-giving missions, and impeccable ethics. In 2007, we offered grants and sponsorships totaling more than $200,000 in direct fiscal investment; and tens of thousands of dollars worth of donated services and “in-kind” investment. By 2011, the Foundation envisions growth beyond $1,000,000.
