The vision of C4C is to work through local pastors

The vision of C4C is to work through local pastors to move their communities from survival towards stability and then ultimately onward to sustainability.

We have accomplished much in our 14 villages to provide for basic needs and employment and we are committed to work towards sustainability for each of our villages. We have begun doing this through backyard farming and microloans.

Visit the link in our bio to partner with us in this work, serving over 7,000 kids across Haiti.

Happy Birthday to our very own Bishop Maxime, who is the head of the 14 churches we partner with across Haiti. Thank you for the selfless work you do for thousands of families who are being greatly impacted by the power of the Gospel. We praise God for the work you do and for the strong example you are.

Life gets more challenging by the day in Haiti, but you remain a steadfast light and strength to the people you serve. Blessings to you on this day of celebration and for the year ahead!

Lumène Philippe has sold bulk food items for 18

Lumène Philippe has sold bulk food items for 18 years, but has not been able to significantly grow her business out of her home until receiving a loan from our Microlending Program in Gonaives this year. This program began in 2018 and is led by Pastor Charlemont, our Head Pastor in our Gonaives. We have given out loans to 19 women in total ranging from $300 to $1,000.

Lumène has been highly successful and is grateful that her business growth has empowered her to better provide food and education for her 4 children.

Today is World Food Day! 1 in 3 Haitians are in need of urgent food assistance, according to the World Food Programme.

Chances for Children is committed to growing, nourishing, and sustaining the 14 village communities we work in across Haiti. We currently provide food to 4,300 children and we are 2 years along with our backyard farming agriculture project for 100 of the poorest families in our remote village of Massikot.

Visit the link in our bio to help these efforts continue and multiply so that we can establish sustainability and provide better access to food in our village communities.

Today we loaded up a truck with food to send to our 5 villages in the South! A total of 63,000 meals are being sent for 1,690 village kids. Blocked roads and washed out mountain roads did not keep us from finding a way to get this food down there.

Although we are having to take a different route than planned, God has paved the way for us. This has been a theme for C4C, especially over the past 2 years. Challenges arise day after day, but God is always directing us and providing for our needs and we trust Him to continue to. 🙏

Congratulations to our C4C Accountant, Frantzcy, and our Crèche Manager, Jorbe, for recently getting married to the loves of their lives! We are overjoyed for you all! May God bless your journeys ahead in marriage. 🙏💕

In the past 6 weeks, the dollar has plummeted 50%

In the past 6 weeks, the dollar has plummeted 50% against the gourde (Haitian currency).

This results in 2x the operating costs for payroll and other expenses such as food delivery to our village feeding programs, crèche food and supplies, etc.

This sudden change is an extremely challenging one, especially this year in Haiti with the pandemic, higher cost of living, less work opportunities across the country, the list goes on.

Despite this, we are incredibly grateful for your support and the ways God continues to provide for C4C and over 7,000 children we serve. Please join C4C during this year of perseverance by visiting the link in our bio for our Days of Hope virtual event November 7-14.

This little guy, D, is a true living miracle.

4 years ago we had to transport him down the mountain from the village of Caporal to the nearest hospital a couple hours away. He was severely malnourished and likely wouldn’t have lived much longer without immediate help. He began his slow recovery for 3 months in the hospital and at a malnutrition center.

Without the aid of our medical team, D would most likely not be the healthy boy that he is today.

Visit the link in our bio to help in sending our Haitian doctors and nurses from our Kenscoff clinic out to our remote villages to care for many more children in need of medical treatment.

3 years ago this mobile medical team trekked through the mud barefoot to get to our Model village!

We are hopeful for the day to come that we can send mobile medical teams again to Haiti, but until then we continue our work through our 160 Haitian staff and 14 churches to reach the most vulnerable children across Haiti.

We are just one month away from our Days of Hope virtual event!

We have some great things “cooking”...here’s a sneak peek into one of our activities that will give you a taste of Haiti!

You will have the opportunity to cook a traditional Haitian meal alongside one of our beloved Guesthouse cooks - Madame Pierre! She attended culinary school before being employed by C4C, she is excited to teach you what she knows!

If you decide to join in on the fun, you will be entered into a drawing to win a new and exciting C4C product that hasn’t been released yet! (It just MIGHT have something to do with the delicious Haitian meal you’ll be making!)

Be sure to tune in to our Days of Hope kick off event on Saturday, Nov. 7th at 4pm MST to get more details on our Haitian Cooking Class!

E turns 4 today - he is a little more shy than the other kids but has the sweetest disposition. He has really grown out of his shell since first coming to the crèche 1.5 years ago.
