vulnerable children in Haiti

In Haiti, many children live in fear of exploitation and abuse. Vulnerable children often face abandonment, child slavery, life on the streets, hunger, trauma, and a future without education or hope. Many have never experienced the love of a family or heard the life-changing message of the Gospel.

Our mission is to rescue and raise up these vulnerable children through the transforming power of God’s love by providing them with a safe home, nurturing care, education, and the hope found in Jesus Christ.

Homes of Hope

Through Homes of Hope, vulnerable children are welcomed into safe, loving Christian families where they can heal, grow, and become healthy, independent Christ-followers.

Each Home of Hope cares for up to 12 boys or girls who receive:

• A stable, Christ-centered home
• Biblical discipleship
• Access to quality education
• Trauma-informed care
• Life skills to prepare for independent adulthood
• Mentorship to become future leaders in their communities

Today, over 20 Homes of Hope serve more than 260 orphaned and extremely vulnerable children. Within a nurturing family environment, each child experiences the love of Christ lived out daily while receiving education and opportunities rarely available in Haiti that prepare them for a hope-filled future.

CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS

In addition, Loving Shepherd Ministries operates two private Christian schools, providing Christ-centered education to more than 550 students, including Homes of Hope children and those from the local community. From early childhood through high school graduation, students receive academic instruction, spiritual guidance, and practical training that prepare them to pursue a hope-filled future and live out God’s purpose for their lives.

“Before I came to my Home of Hope, I was waiting to be sent away as a child slave, just like my five siblings. I am so thankful to God for my new family and that I can go to school and attend church to learn about Jesus!” - Home of Hope Child
