Our Impact
Our journey began out of instinct and an ethical imperative to save lives. Today, our efforts have evolved into an approach centered on building sustainable programs to support communities to recover, rebuild, and be prepared in the face of crisis.
“I have never seen so much good in any situation than after a disaster. That’s where you see the most amazing miracles of what people can do for each other. And that’s what keeps us going.”
— Ann Lee, Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer

Emergency Relief
We act both quickly and strategically in the face of crisis, in order to address the immediate damage on the ground, doing whatever it takes to save lives and stabilize the local community.
Disaster Preparedness
Crisis mitigation means understanding the vulnerabilities that exist before emergency efforts are needed. We build systems that equip at-risk communities with the ability to fight back when faced with disaster.
Environmental Resilience
From hurricanes to wildfires, it’s impossible to ignore climate change’s role in causing natural disasters. We are committed to a future where our environment is no longer at the root of the crisis, but rather a system of support.
Community Building
We support one of the largest municipalities in Port au Prince through education, vocational training, community health, programs targeting women, and a dynamic community space.
