The document outlines the plans and goals of "A Child's Hope", a proposed orphanage and educational facility in Haiti. It discusses forming an NGO and obtaining approvals to purchase over 200 acres for the multi-phase development, which will initially house 320 children and expand over time. The mission is to provide abandoned Haitian children a safe home, education, and life skills to rebuild their future. Core values include strong family and Haitian cultural integration, as well as providing long-term opportunities through agriculture, trades and bi-lingual schooling. Feedback is requested to help realize the vision of improving conditions for Haiti's most vulnerable children.

9. Mission Statement
“A Child’s Hope” is conceived to provide a safe, loving
and supportive Christian home for abandoned children
of Haiti
Our mission is to provide lost or abandoned children a
home, an education and life skills that will allow them
to rebuild and lead the Haiti of tomorrow
11. Core Values
• As founders of “A Child’s Hope,” we want to join
with Haitian partners who share a common
Christian vision to aid Haiti in its rebuilding efforts
• Our chosen path is to work with Haiti’s
orphaned, abandoned and lost children—an
underserved and decidedly underprivileged group
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is: to
look after orphans and widows in their distress… - James 1:27
12. Core Values
• We believe in strong family values that have the
children’s best physical, emotional, educational and
spiritual interest at heart
“train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old
he will not turn from it.” – Proverbs 22:6
• Our goal is to involve Haitians to the utmost in this
program and to embrace the Haitian culture
• We are committed to see the “A Child’s Hope”
community flourish and thrive for its members as
they grow and progress through the program
• “A Child’s Hope” will be a home for its members to
look to as family
13. Core Values
• “A Child’s Hope” will provide a bi-lingual
curriculum
– Creole will be the primary language with
English & French as secondary languages
– Speaking the different languages will
enhance the students’ potential as they
become employed and serve their country
• The Haitian culture is to be respected and will
form the foundation for the social and
educational programs at “A Child’s Hope”
14. Core Values
• The Founders will provide opportunities for others to
serve
• The Founders have no economic or monetary
incentive from these efforts
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the
lord, not men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance
from the lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.”
Colossians 3:23-24
