As we step into 2026, we want to pause and thank God for you and reflect on the journey we shared in 2025.

This past year came with many challenges in Haiti, yet through every season, hope continued to rise. Because of your prayers and faithful partnership, children were fed, families received clean water, students remained in school, and the love of Christ was shared in powerful ways.

In 2025, together we saw:

Children continuing their education through sponsorship

Families sustained through food programs and Christmas Giving

Hundreds served through clean water access

Hope Farm completed, bringing stability, food, and jobs to the community

Children reached through Easter and Summer VBS with the message of Jesus

None of this would be possible without your generosity, obedience, and commitment to this mission.

As we enter this new year, we are filled with expectation for what God will continue to do. Thank you for walking with Tree of Hope Haiti and for being part of a story that is still being written.


“The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.” — Psalm 126:3
 

From our family and the families we serve—Happy New Year, and thank you for being a source of hope.

This year’s Haiti Banquet was an extraordinary evening of purpose, fellowship, and hope. Friends, families, churches, and partners gathered together with a shared heart for the children and families of Grand-Goâve — and God truly blessed the outcome.

The room was filled with meaningful conversations, laughter, testimonies, prayer, and a renewed passion for making a tangible difference in Haiti. We were deeply moved by the story shared by Johnsley, one of our TOHH graduates, and by Rob and Wendy, long-standing TOHH partners, who spoke from the heart about the power of partnership and child sponsorship. We were truly touched by the generosity shown by every person who attended.

One of the most exciting outcomes of the evening was the sponsorship of 8 children that night, and since the banquet, a grand total of 34 children have now been sponsored. Each of them can now attend school, receive needed support, and experience renewed hope for their future. These are not just numbers — these are real children whose lives are being changed because someone cared.

We left the evening deeply encouraged and filled with expectation for what God will continue to do as we walk forward in faith and unity.

Thank you for standing with us, investing in lives, and believing in the future of Haiti.

Mark your calendars and reserve your seat!

Because of YOU, we reached our goal! This August, more than 200 children in our community experienced the joy and enrichment of Summer Camp. From Bible lessons and games to music, art, and sports, their days were filled with laughter and learning. Best of all—you helped us provide lunch for every child, Monday through Friday, all month long!

The joy on their faces filled our campus, and it’s all thanks to your prayers, generosity, and support.

The picture above is from our End of Summer Celebration, where Gama invites all the children for one last meal together. Each age group shares a song, poem, dance, skit, or memory verse in celebration of what they’ve learned this summer.

Now, as the kids prepare to head back to school, we’re shifting gears to distribute uniforms, books, and backpacks—all made possible by our incredible Child Sponsors and Donors. Gama shared the exciting news that the supplies we shipped last year have arrived safely in Haiti. The children are thrilled to receive everything they need to begin the school year strong and confident.

From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for investing in their future!

As the school year comes to a close, we’re celebrating a major milestone—seven Tree of Hope Haiti students have officially graduated from high school! We are incredibly proud of their hard work, perseverance, and the bright futures ahead.

Join us in congratulating:
Steevenson Louis
Eddy Dominique
Marline Dominique
Loudia Rene
Manoucheka Rene
Kedner Pierre
Jean Bernard Louis

A heartfelt thank you to their amazing TOHH child sponsors—your faithful support made this achievement possible. You’ve invested in their future, and this month we celebrated the fruit of that partnership. Thank you for walking this journey with them!

July has been a month of incredible generosity and momentum for Tree of Hope Haiti! Thanks to your support, our Summer Lunch Program fundraiser was a huge success—we reached 75% of our $12,000 goal! This means over 200 children in Grand-Goâve will receive consistent, nutritious meals during camp this August. We’re deeply grateful to each of you who gave, prayed, and shared. Your partnership is feeding hope—one child at a time.

We’re not done yet—will you help us reach the finish line? Watch this short video from last year’s camp to see the joy your support brings: https://youtu.be/cS9IsEhkA1Q?si=Aqfd69zUnvMSOMOS.

Then join us in making the final 25% possible! Every gift, big or small, helps fill another plate and brighten another smile.

We’re excited to share another major milestone—Hope Farm is officially complete! The chicken coop and storage/keeper units have been fully built, and this vision is now becoming a reality. Gama has just returned to Haiti, and we’re preparing to purchase the first batch of baby chicks to begin this life-giving project.

Hope Farm was created to bring stability, food, and job opportunities to our community—and now, by God’s grace and your support, it's ready to launch. 

We’ve put together a short video showing the entire construction process—from foundation to finish. Click here to watch: https://youtube.com/shorts/vNF7eMTaEjo?si=bLRODQjEXIA2h67J

Please join us in prayer as we take these first steps toward sustainable impact in Grand-Goâve. We’re so grateful to walk this journey with you!

Highlighting our 9th Graders!

School is almost out, but before graduation on June 29th, our 9th-grade students have an important milestone ahead—their national exams. We’re grateful to share that for the second year in a row, they will not have to travel far to take the test. While we missed the opportunity to share this update last year, it's worth celebrating again: students now have access to a central testing location right in Grand-Goâve, offering a much safer and more accessible environment. This is a huge answer to prayer and a significant improvement for our community.

Please keep our students in your prayers on June 30th, as this exam determines whether they advance to 10th grade or repeat 9th. We’re so thankful for our faithful child sponsors who continue to make Christ-centered education possible. Your support is truly building a brighter future!

Provide a Meal, Share a Smile!

As the school year comes to a close in Grand-Goâve, our team is preparing for one of the most impactful programs we offer each year—our Summer Camp and Feeding Program.
For many children in our community, school is the primary place they receive a reliable meal. Once school is out, food insecurity increases dramatically. That’s why every August, we open our gates to hundreds of children, offering them a safe place to play, learn, and receive a hot meal.

Last year, thanks to your generosity, we raised $10,000 and were able to feed over 200 children throughout the month of August. This year, we hope to do the same—and we need your help.

• ?️ $3 provides one child with a hot, nutritious meal.
• ?? We serve meals Monday through Friday during our August camp.
• ??‍? The program also provides job security for local cooks and staff.

With your support, we can meet our goal of $10,000 and continue to serve the children who depend on us during the summer break.

? We’re aiming to raise these funds before and during the month of August.
You can give today by visiting www.treeofhopehaiti.org/give and selecting “Summer Lunch Program” from the dropdown menu.

Thank you for being a part of this mission. Together, we can feed the children, lift spirits, and share the hope of Christ.

We’re excited to share a major milestone at Hope Farm! Thanks to the dedication and hard work of Gama and our Haitian staff, the caretaker and storage building next to the chicken coop is now complete. In addition to finishing this important structure, the team also completed the chicken coop itself, including the installation of strong metal doors and protective chicken wire to ensure the safety of the flock. This progress marks a significant step forward in maintaining year-round care for the chickens, securing vital supplies, and strengthening the future sustainability of Hope Farm.

We plan to begin this exciting journey in August with our first group of baby chicks, taking a big step toward food security and long-term impact. We are deeply grateful for our team on the ground—and for your continued prayers, support, and partnership as we build hope together in Grand-Goâve.

Easter VBS Kicked Off with Joy and Celebration!

Children learned about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus through stories, games, coloring, and more.

The week ended with TOHH staff and children coming together for a joyful Easter celebration filled with skits, songs, delicious food and drinks, and a powerful showing of the Jesus Film. It was a beautiful reminder of why we celebrate—Jesus Christ is risen!

A heartfelt thank you to all our Tree of Hope Haiti partners and child sponsors who make moments like these possible. Your support brings joy, hope, and the message of Christ to the hearts of children in Grand-Goâve.

In Haiti, flying kites during Easter isn’t just a fun tradition—it’s full of meaning. Each kite soaring into the sky reminds us of Jesus' ascension 40 days after His resurrection.
Just as Jesus was lifted into Heaven, kites rise as beautiful symbols of victory, hope, and new life. (And of course, it's a lot of fun too!)

We wish you a blessed and joyful Easter as we celebrate our resurrected King, Jesus!
Because He lives, we have hope. The tomb is empty, the promise fulfilled, and eternal life is ours through Him. Today and every day, we rejoice that no darkness can overcome the light of Christ. He has risen, just as He said!

From all of us at Tree of Hope Haiti—Happy Easter!

The team has been hard at work laying the stone retaining wall, setting rebar, and raising the walls of the caretaker’s room and storage area. Backfilling has also played a key role, creating a level, stable foundation to support the structure long-term.
Every step brings us closer to sustainable food, local jobs, and lasting hope for families in Grand-Goâve. Thank you for building with us!

After three long days of travel, Gama arrived safely in Grand-Goâve. We’re so grateful for your prayers—they truly mean the world to us!

Please continue to pray for his protection as he serves on the ground and carries out the work God has placed before him in Haiti.

One of Gama’s first priorities after arriving was to service all of our vehicles. He replaced parts and completed essential maintenance—and we’ve made great progress. Our tap-tap and box truck are now up and running! Please join us in praying that our four-wheeler will soon be fully operational as well. Reliable transportation is vital for our daily ministry work, and we’re so thankful for the progress so far.

Work continues at Hope Farm, where a few more rows of blocks were added to the chicken coop’s foundation. Construction also began on a nearby storage building, which will include two rooms—one to provide shelter for the chicken caretaker, and another to store supplies and tools. Although the rainy season has slowed things down, steady progress is being made!

Gama recently met with our Vacation Bible School (VBS) team to prepare for a special week of ministry leading up to Easter. Children will learn about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ through Bible stories, games, coloring, and kite-making. The week will end with a joyful celebration—complete with food, drinks, and a showing of the Jesus Film—offering each child the opportunity to hear the Gospel and respond to Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

This outreach is one of the many ways your support is making an eternal impact—and it’s also a reminder of how much we rely on God’s provision and protection in everything we do.

As we prepare for this special VBS and continue serving in Grand-Goâve, we invite you to join us in prayer:

Pray for Peace in Haiti
Please pray for the nation of Haiti—asking God to bring peace, stability, and protection to communities impacted by violence and unrest.

Pray for Our Family
Lift up our family in prayer as we lead and serve. Pray for wisdom, strength, and unity as we seek to follow God's direction every step of the way.

Pray for Tree of Hope Haiti
Pray for continued provision for Tree of Hope Haiti—so we can move forward with key projects, support children and families, and bring lasting hope to Grand-Goâve.

We are deeply grateful for our Tree of Hope Haiti partners who make it possible to minister to the people of Grand-Goâve—bringing hope where it’s needed most. Your prayers, generosity, and encouragement are making a lasting impact.

Together, we are planting seeds of hope that will grow for generations to come.

We are thrilled to share that we have reached a new goal—170 children sponsored! This means 170 children from our community now have access to a Christian education, a future filled with opportunity, and the hope that comes from knowing they are loved and supported. Thank you for your prayers, shares, and advocacy in helping us grow this mission. Let’s continue working together to reach even more children!

One of the most exciting highlights has been the near completion of Hope Farm, our new chicken farm project! This initiative will bring stability, job opportunities, and a sustainable food source to the community, and it’s all possible because of your generosity and commitment to the mission.

As we look forward to 2025, we pray for a year filled with health, prosperity, and new opportunities to serve together. Thank you for standing with us to bring hope and transformation to Haiti. May God richly bless you and your loved ones in the year ahead!

Reunited as a Family Again!
We’re so thankful to share that Gama made it safely back to America this past week! Your prayers over the holiday season have been such a blessing to our family. While it was challenging to celebrate apart, God’s grace carried us through, and we now cherish this time together even more.

As we settle back into our family routines, we’re also making space to connect with YOU, our friends, churches, clubs, and businesses. We’d love to meet with you! Don't wait—let's connect and meet up!

By partnering together, we can help spread the word about Tree of Hope Haiti and inspire new supporters to join us in advancing this vital mission.

Together, We've Made 2024 Extraordinary!

We hope you had a blessed Christmas filled with peace and joy. As the year draws to a close, we’re reflecting on all that God has done through Tree of Hope Haiti in 2024. Here’s a glimpse of what’s happening in Grand-Goâve this December:

Christmas Giving Program ?

Thanks to our generous supporters, we’re providing multiple meals for children and their families during the holiday season. This program goes beyond a single meal, ensuring children can enjoy the holiday break from school without hunger.

Hope Farm Progress ?

The construction of Hope Farm is making great progress! The foundation, pillars, and roof are complete, bringing us one step closer to opening. The final step is installing the chicken wire, after which the chickens can move in. Once operational, this farm will bring much-needed stability to the community by creating jobs and providing a sustainable food source. We’re thrilled about the positive impact this initiative will have on local families in 2025 and beyond!

Education Initiatives ?

Our sponsorship program continues to grow, we had six more children added to enroll in school this month. We’re working toward our vision of seeing every child in Grand-Goâve enrolled in school.

Building Homes, Building Hope ?

This year, we were blessed to construct a cement house for a family in need. This new home provides safety, stability, and a fresh start, representing a tangible expression of God’s love and care for the community.

Daily Support for Families ?

We remain committed to providing clean water to 800 families daily, even amidst ongoing challenges such as gang violence and road closures. Your support has been crucial in making this possible.

Prayer Requests ?

• Continued safety for Gama as he is still in Haiti.
• Our community amidst ongoing unrest.
• Wisdom and provision for the next phase of Hope Farm.
• Favor and resources as we prepare for 2025.

Thank you for partnering with us to transform lives and communities in Haiti.

On behalf of all those at Tree of Hope Haiti, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your support and presence at this year’s Haiti Banquet! It was a joy to gather with such a dedicated group of friends, family, and partners who share our vision for positive change in Haiti. The evening was filled with great food, fellowship, celebration, and encouragement.

Because of your generosity, we raised an incredible Grand Total of $22,186! These funds will go directly toward our programs in Grand-Goave, providing clean water, education, food stability, and hope to the community we serve. We’re also thrilled to welcome four new child sponsors and one new monthly supporter to the Tree of Hope family!

We are especially grateful for Pastor Neal of Hope Chapel, who led our first-ever time of prayer for Haiti. He guided our guests through a powerful series of prayer points that truly resonated. Gama and I could feel the power of prayer in the room, and it was a blessing to hear everyone praying together in one accord.

Your continued support and prayer mean the world to us and to those in Haiti whose lives are directly touched by your kindness. Thank you for standing with us and for being a vital part of our mission to transform lives and bring hope.

With deep gratitude,
Gama and Angela
