current projects
Projects that are currently in process or that have been planned and are awaiting funds to begin...
School
Currently: K-6 school in six classrooms built with a wood frame and a tarp roof. A two-level school building with 12 classrooms (for a full K-12 school) plus a school office room is in the beginning stages of construction.
Chicken coop
A mongoose-proof chicken coop that will house up to 200 chickens. Chickens and proper chicken feed are needed.
Staff housing
Several small homes have been built around the vicinity of the main house to house staff members. More are needed. Property on which to build is available.
Student housing
There are two small dorm rooms outside of the main house for children ages eight and up. We need at least four more dorm rooms to accommodate the children we currently house, in order to free the main house for its original purpose.
completed projects
These are projects that have been completed and are currently in use at Haiti Village...
Main House
Originally designed to house visiting medical, missionary, and relief teams from the United States; it currently houses around twenty five orphans and fifteen staff members. It has four "bunk" style bedrooms with American standard bathrooms, two additional staff bedrooms, kitchen, dining area, and veranda. To provide comfort for travelers, the doors and windows have screens and the water is safe to drink.
Bakery
Enclosed building with large oven. Bread produced is sold for revenue, and also provides fresh bread for the feeding program and main house.
Water Well
Deep well, with pump that is powered by electricity. When electricity is not available (which is usually the case!), a generator must be used to pump.
Church
A simple church building with a platform in front. Building can accommodate benches for about 200 attendees.
