The Haitian Alliance for Community Action, Inc. (HACA) was founded in 2009 by Haitian Americans determined to help families living in extreme poverty in the rural communities south of Pétion-Ville, Haiti. What began as a shared commitment to serve has grown into a lasting mission of providing healthcare, education, and hope.

 

Over the years, HACA has made a meaningful difference by opening an outpatient clinic that served hundreds of patients through local Haitian physicians and volunteer Haitian American doctors, providing annual food and school supply distributions to hundreds of families, and supporting children orphaned by Haiti's 2010 earthquake.

 

Education remains at the heart of our work. Since launching our scholarship program in 2014, HACA has helped dozens of children attend school. To date, we have 16 graduates already completing their studies. Many of them have continued into vocational training, while our newest graduates are preparing for university careers in law, accounting, and business. For just $550 a year, a child can receive an education that opens the door to a brighter future.

 

In 2019, HACA launched Nurses for Hope, an initiative to bring lifesaving healthcare to isolated mountain communities where medical care is often hours away. By training and supporting local nurses, we are expanding access to preventive care, emergency services, and health education where it is needed most.

 

Every milestone in HACA's history has been made possible by the generosity of donors and volunteers. Together, we are creating healthier communities, expanding educational opportunities, and giving Haitian children and families the chance to build a brighter future.

 

Today, the need is greater than ever. Thousands of children still lack access to education, and many families in rural Haiti remain without nearby healthcare. Your generosity can sponsor a child's education, expand community health services, and help HACA reach even more families with hope and opportunity.
