Our goal is to increase philanthropic investments to support local initiatives in Haiti that improve the lives of children, families and communities. We focus on civic engagement, education, family economic security and maternal and child health.
Pockets of Hope supports systems that grow from within communities and evolve over time. This is trust-based giving, focused on long-term impact. As a funder, you’re part of this shared effort, working in konbit to help expand Haitian-led impact across the country.
An interview with Porticus
Our funder spotlight features Christina Kirby, a program officer at Porticus, who shares how Haiti’s communities are leading social change and how philanthropy is supporting those efforts.
Transformation is happening through programs grounded in cultural knowledge and built in close collaboration with communities. These efforts are shaped through long-term partnerships that prioritize trust, shared goals and locally relevant solutions. These impact figures reflect real progress happening every day.
