Transitioning children from orphanages into loving families
Through our Future Hope Program, the older children visited Farmatrix Laboratories, a pharmaceutical manufacturer. They were able to ask questions about careers in the industry and get an inside look at how vitamins & medicines are made.

This summer two of our children – Cindy & Jean Paul – were reunified with their families as a result of our Family Hope program!

Cindy came into …

Life is returning to normal in Port Au Prince. We have been able to restock essentials like water, food, and propane. Our kiddos are back in school. We are so thankful for this! Although the protests have stopped, the underlying issues have yet to be addressed. It is very likely that in the months ahead, there will be more protests …
Dear friends of Child Hope International, We know we rarely get news from Haiti in the US.
