BRINGING EDUCATION & HOPE TO 160 CHILDREN IN THE MOUNTAINS OF HAITI
In October of 2018, we opened Chasing Eden School in the remote mountains of Figaro, Haiti, giving children access to education where there was none. After years of navigating COVID, political unrest, and the challenges of building, we broke ground on our permanent school in early 2025.
This October 2026, our students will walk through the doors of their new school for the very first time!
Our new building will open with 9 classrooms serving kindergarten through 6th grade, 15 staff members, and a daily feeding program for every student and staff member. We’ll continue expanding to accommodate students through 12th grade, along with a multipurpose building that will serve as a church for the local community.
Be part of what’s being built. Sponsor a specific staff member or choose a monthly donation amount to help cover salaries and keep these classrooms filled with eager learners. Through teacher and staff sponsorships, we can provide children with a quality education at no cost to their families.
Together, we’re building more than a school—we’re investing in the future of an entire community.
