Reimagine Haiti

Reimagine Haiti's vision is to work in community with the people that we serve, by: seeking out what they believe they need, not what we believe they may need; being respectful of their culture, their abilities and their knowledge; and recognizing their ability to make changes on their own. We will work in a way that will produce long-lasting, sustainable changes by addressing and treating the roo

t causes of problems, not simply the symptoms. Most importantly, we will develop working and living relationships with the people of the community, acknowledging that we have just as much to learn from them as they have to learn from us. Statement of Faith:

Reimagine Haiti was founded on and operates under the following Christian values. We believe:

- That there is no greater gift and no higher calling than love.
- That love should be freely given.
- That our lives, rather than our words, are our most powerful testimony.
- That we serve God by serving each other.
- That on some level, we are all “the least of these”. And yet,
- That our value is not dictated by our color, age, gender, past, any orientation or status, but by the unwavering, unsurpassable and non-discriminating love of Jesus. Purpose Statement:

Reimagine Haiti exists with the dream to be a catalyst in the pursuit to one day eradicate poverty and improve the quality of life for the people of Haiti. Being the poorest nation in the western hemisphere, Haiti experiences thousands of preventable deaths each year due to the various and devastating effects of her poverty. Reimagine Haiti is dedicated to working with the people of Haiti to address the issues resulting from undeveloped agricultural, environmental and infrastructural practices. As a community development organization, we strive to serve by coming along side community leaders, working in collaboration with local officials and listening to the local people. In this way we can help them as they obtain the tools and resources to effectively initiate changes that will create a better future for generations to come. As an advocacy organization, we strive to advocate for the people that we serve in Haiti by accurately representing their needs, desires and lives to more developed societies. We aim to breakdown stereotypes that continue to hurt the developing world, rather than advance it. By representing impoverished communities in a truthful, respectful and empowering way, we not only help them, we open the eyes of future generations to inspire global change in an effective and positive way. Reimagine Haiti is a non-profit corporation and shall be operated exclusively for charitable, religious, educational, and scientific purposes, including, for such purposes, the making of distributions to organizations that qualify as exempt organizations under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, or the corresponding section of any future federal tax code.
