Here4Haiti
start a fundraiser
What would you do for food for your family? What would you do in medicine?
For #here4haiti supporters the answer has been just about anything.
From lemonade stands to art shows and pop-up concerts, or pie-throwing contests, we've witnessed your fundraisers embark on incredible journeys to support the Here 4 Haiti projects. No matter the fundraising style, 100% of the funds raised go directly to transforming the futures of families in Haiti.
Why fundraise?
No one should die from the cost of medical or food insecurity. And yet, at least 115,000 children in Haiti are expected to suffer from life-threatening malnutrition this year and diabetes is responsible for 5% of lost lives in Haiti (in Canada the rate is less than 1%).
But it doesn’t need to be this way. The medical care crisis and food insecurity are problems we know how to help. And thanks to the incredible community leaders we will if we work together.
As a fundraiser, you'll inspire your community to join you in the #here4haiti movement to bring food to kids who will be fed weekly, mothers who can afford life-saving medicine, fish farmers who have the tools to harvest and feed their families, and elderly people who will be cared for.
Along with increasing awareness and empowering those around you to take action, 100% of the funds you raise will help Haiti thrive.
