Most of the children at the Freedom House were either a restavek or in extreme poverty. Many are from Laborde, a village in the mountains of Haiti. The village, only accessible by foot, has no schools, churches or medical care. Many children from this area are dying from malnutrition and worms, have scabies, and are being sold into slavery as a restavek and abused.

A restavek is a child that has been given to another family as a servant in hopes to have their basic needs met. Usually these kids are between the ages of 4-15. They do all the household chores, cooking, cleaning, washing and fetching water. They are often abused and most likely do not go to school. We can’t change the fact that this still happens in Haiti but we can change the lives and futures of our kids. These kids now have FREEDOM everyday, and NEVER have to worry about things such as their next meal or shoes for their feet.  We want to offer these kids a lifetime of Love, Hope AND Freedom to be the change for Haiti’s future.

You can help our mission by sponsoring a child. The Freedom House needs $400 per child monthly for a full sponsorship. The minimum sponsorship amount is $50. You may also give any amount to our General Fund which is used for the overall management of our 2 homes and any additional expenses that is not included in our sponsorship program.
