Become a Thrive Monthly Donor

Join a community of monthly donors dedicated to empowering young people in Haiti to thrive.

Together, we can empower young people in Haiti to THRIVE.

The journey out of poverty is a process that requires commitment and determination, but with help it is possible. When you become a Thrive monthly donor, you join a community of people committed to making a long term impact in the lives of young Haitians. Your support provides education, technology, and mentoring on an ongoing basis. This is a holistic approach that truly positions young people to thrive as students, leaders, and human beings.

Education

Education is a step toward a brighter future. However, most families struggle to afford to send their kids to school. When a student is supported through Thrive Ansanm, we cover the cost of their tuition and other school costs, so they can stay in school and succeed.

Technology

Digital access creates opportunity and connection. Most Haitian students don’t have a computer or high-speed internet, but at our resource center local students can access laptops, high-speed internet, and consistent electricity, so they won’t get left behind in today’s digital world.

Mentoring

Mentoring develops the leaders of tomorrow. We match university students with personal mentors who who provide guidance from their experience. These mentors are qualified professionals from the local community, so they understand the unique challenges confronting Haitian students.

Charlotte

Charlotte lives with her parents in a rural area near the town of Jeremie. Highly intelligent, at a young age she stands out for her kindness and communication skills. For example, she already speaks excellent French even though many Haitian children are only fluent in Creole.

Her teachers say she is a natural leader, yet she's in danger of dropping out of school because her parents can't afford to...

Jameson has not led an easy life. His mother died during his birth, and he now lives with his godparents in a small two-room house in Jérémie.

She is not yet fluent, but she loves the language, and she already has some basic vocabulary. Of course, that may change as she gets...

Abigaïl

Abigaïl is a very smart little girl who lives with her mother and sister and likes playing with other children in the community. Her mother has no steady employment, so she is forced to buy and sell small items on the street just to survive, and this is why she can't afford to send Abigaïl to school. Abigaïl is very active, and she says that singing and cooking are among her favorite activities. Your support will enable her to get a good education and explore her many interests. Ultimately, it...

Ansly

Ansly has been in our program for a few years now. He is being raised by his single mother who has no consistent employment, so she is struggling to make ends meet. Without the support he has received through Thrive Ansanm, he would not be where he is at today. Ansly is a fun-loving, outgoing, and funny boy who likes to be out in the neighborhood with his friends and playing soccer. He is a huge fan of Black Panther because he’s a “really strong superhero.” He loves school, and his favorite...
