This Giving Tuesday, December 3rd, I am honored to announce that 10% of our November sales will be donated directly to Multiply Haiti, a dedicated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to uplifting Haitian communities through education and compassionate outreach.
The organization's mission is to make a tangible difference in the lives of Haitians by addressing critical needs.
The Story Behind Multiply Haiti
Multiply Haiti's journey began in 2010 when founders Ryan and Naomi Thomas adopted their youngest son, Jeffry, from an orphanage near Port-au-Prince. This personal connection ignited a deep commitment to Haiti and its people. Over the years, their bond with the country strengthened, leading to the establishment of Multiply Haiti. The organization's mission is to make a tangible difference in the lives of Haitians by addressing critical needs.
Outreach Initiatives
Multiply Haiti operates several impactful programs:
-
Child Sponsorship: In Haiti, public education is virtually non-existent, and private school tuition often exceeds a family's annual income. Multiply Haiti's Child Sponsorship program provides children in Ranquitte with the necessary resources—books, supplies, uniforms, and tuition—to attend school. For just $30 per month, sponsors can ensure a child's educational journey, empowering them with skills for a brighter future.
-
See a Need, Meet a Need: This initiative addresses urgent individual needs as they arise. Whether it's assisting a new mother unable to pay hospital bills or providing essential medical supplies, Multiply Haiti steps in to offer immediate relief, embodying compassion in action.
-
Feed a Friend: Recognizing the pervasive issue of food insecurity, this program focuses on providing nutritious meals to those in need, ensuring that hunger does not hinder the potential of Haiti's people.
How You Can Get Involved
Beyond my commitment to donate a portion of our November sales, I encourage you to explore additional ways to support Multiply Haiti:
-
Direct Donations: Contributions of any size can make a significant impact. Donations are tax-deductible and directly support the organization's programs.
-
Merchandise Purchases: Multiply Haiti offers a selection of handcrafted items, including bracelets made by Ralph, a 20-year-old entrepreneur whose education is supported by the organization. Purchasing these items not only provides financial support but also empowers local artisans.
This Giving Tuesday, join us in supporting Multiply Haiti's mission to create lasting change. Your support helps provide education, meet urgent needs, and offer hope to communities striving for a better future.
Together, we can make a meaningful difference!
