Haiti no Kai is an NGO that aims to provide literacy education and life guidance to poor children in Haiti and to improve the lives of local people. Since 1986 it has carried out agricultural support and farm-building activities.
Since its independence in 1804, Haiti has faced pressure from powerful countries, domestic political conflict and hurricane damage every year. The group says Haitians remain cheerful and never give up hope, and it supports their self-reliance under the principle of "living together."
Staying in touch with its local partner KFP, it continues to run a school, provide school meals and prepare for farm work. Donations are used for literacy education and meal costs, upkeep of the general farm and other purposes. Its website also introduces the country, its culture and the latest situation on the ground. A report meeting marking its 40th year of activity is announced for September 2026 in Osaka.
Key points
- A long-running effort since 1986, centered on literacy education and agricultural support
- A clear motto: "protect lives today through agriculture, nurture Haiti's tomorrow through education"
- Information about Haiti's country, culture and current situation, plus report meetings
Why this organization's work stands out
It works on both agriculture, which secures today's food, and education, which leads to the future. Even in difficult times, it comes across as staying connected with local partners and carrying on.
Its attitude, that support for developing countries starts with understanding the culture and sharing hearts with its people, is also a useful reference.
Editor's comment
I was moved by an organization that has kept working with one country for nearly 40 years. Learning about Haiti today feels like an important first step toward supporting it.
Activity reports and ways to give support are on the official website. Please take a look.
