Come to Haiti this summer! Sponsorships Available

Dear Friends,

We have developed a unique volunteer opportunity for you to work with Let Haiti Live this July! You can work directly with our Reforest Haiti group and make a difference in the lives of our youth group, JADPE.

We have a great group of volunteers - but we need more! And we want to extend the opportunity to people that might not be able to take this trip without some financial support. To make this possible we have created the Elevate Haiti Sponsorship Fund, which will subsidize the cost of the trip for our trip leaders, students, teachers and members of the Haitian Diaspora that want to give their time and effort.
