Welcome to Chances for Children

Chances for Children provides the financial and strategic support for existing orphanages and schools in Haiti. We currently support two orphanages (or crèches as they are called in Haiti). The first creche is located in the small village of Lamerdelle and the second is centrally located in downtown Port au Prince. We also support schools located in the communities where the creches reside. In 2010 we will expand our outreach by adding additional schools, vocational training and medical clinics.

The primary mission of Chances for Children is to improve the lives of children in Haiti. For some children this can be done through our adoption centers where we provide orphaned children with a safe and sane sanctuary, and return them to health. For other children, we believe that education is their only path to a future filled with hope.

Chances for Children is committed to rebuilding Haiti. We are collaborating with Institute Univers, one of the top-10 schools in Haiti. Our current goal is to raise enough money to be able to send James and Pedro (two of I.U.'s brightest) to college in the United States so that they may be able to return to their country and help make it better.

Chances for Children will match the donations raised for this campaign in an effort to secure a second year's education for the students. Please spread the word!
