This year for #GivingTuesday New Life for Haiti is focusing on raising funds for all the extra household items that are needed on campus at the Village of Hope Orphanage since we doubled the number of children we are caring for. Towels, sheets, pillows, dishes, cookware - our needs have doubled! Lucky for you, when you make a donation of any size to New Life for Haiti between now and December 3rd, you'll be entered into a drawing to win a free week in a Kissimmee, Florida condo!

What have you all accomplished this past year?

​This beautiful recap video is a look back at this past year in Haiti! Watch it and see what your support & donations have been able to accomplish for our Haitian brothers and sisters. None of this would be possible without YOU, and for that we are forever grateful!

Meal Packing Event a HUGE SUCCESS!
 

​​People are often asking us, "How can I help? If I can't go to Haiti, what can I DO?" On September 7th, folks from 4 local churches and one corporation came together for a FUN service project/ministry event that will benefit the school children and orphans New Life for Haiti serves. Nutritious meals were packed by this loving group of people working together for the benefit of the Haitian children in our child sponsorship program! Thanks to CSSI Culinary Marketing, as well as Lifespring, Crosswinds, Plainfield Harvest and The Edge Churches for being part of this awesome day!

most vulnerable.

1 in 10 Haitian children are believed to be trafficked into forced begging or commercial sexual exploitation.

New Life for Haiti's Volunteer Spotlight:
Kristen Derengowski! 

This month's Volunteer Spotlight is Kristen Derengowski!
​
Kristen Derengowski became involved with New Life for Haiti about eight years ago. Her involvement began with the sponsoring of a young boy through our child sponsorship program. This young boy and her oldest son were both five years old and entering school at the same time. She explained, “We wanted to sponsor a child that was the same age as our kids so they could grow up together.”

This was only the beginning of Kristen’s commitment to the people of the Grand Anse River Valley as she has travelled to Haiti four times and sponsored two kids. “I truly enjoy seeing the BIG things being done with a small amount of money and people. It really is a God thing. New Life for Haiti says they are going to do something, and they do it - on barely any resources, but somehow, someway it happens.”

Kristen values the relationship you get to have with your sponsored kids, “I hug my sponsor kids when I go. I know their families. Even with a language barrier there is love between us. They are an extension of our family, and we are an extension of theirs.”

“Real, full of love, changing hearts and lives one day at a time, and soul filling,” is what she wishes other people knew about the impact New Life for Haiti has on the people it serves. She stated, “Volunteer and you will awaken your heart to things you have never experienced. Donate and you will see what can be done with your help. Go on a trip and you will forever be changed.”

New Life for Haiti is grateful for the love and support you have shown us over the years, Kristen! We value your steadfast commitment to the people of Marfranc. You are a shining light providing hope and compassion to the forgotten people of Haiti.
