We were started in 1997 by a group of volunteers in Minnesota and a young man from New York state who moved to Haiti eight years earlier, when he was 23 years old, and stayed to make a difference. Beginning with just one half-time employee in Haiti, Haiti Outreach now has 46 employees, 44 of which live there. Since then, we raised over $12 million to work with the people of Haiti to create sustainable projects that improve their lives.
