History

Chances for Children provides the financial and strategic support for an existing orphanage in Haiti. This orphanage (or crèche as they are called in Haiti) is named Crèche de l'Enfant Jèsus and is located in the small village of Ti Mache, just east of Port au Prince.

The crèche was built in 2003  by hundreds of volunteers from the U.S, Canada and Haiti. The result of their efforts was a beautiful 14,000 square foot facility that is currently home to 40 children, but has the capacity to house up to 100 children. The facility also has a volunteer/guest wing, an on-site English speaking pre-school and a clinic for our fulltime nurses and part time pediatrician.

For the past 6 years, Creche de l'Enfant Jesus (CEJ) has been caring for orphaned children and preparing them for their future lives with their new families. While Chances for Children is a newly formed 501C organization, we can ensure immediate results, because we have partnered with a team in Haiti who have been active in the local community for years. The management team of CEJ has a successful history with a proven track record and they understand the complicated Haitian adoption process. To date CEJ has been very successful in completing this process in record times. To date we have had over 100 children adopted into loving homes in Canada and the United States.

The management team of Chances for Children spent a year researching a number of orphanages in Haiti before we decided to partner with Crèche de l'Enfant Jèsus. As we move forward with our other projects (see Our Mission) we will follow the same due diligence to ensure we partner with secure, reputable and results oriented organizations in Haiti.
