- Haiti FactsHaiti Facts GEOGRAPHY Haiti occupies the western third of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, sharing a border with the Dominican Republic. It sits about 700 miles off the coast of Miami and occupies an area just slightly smaller than the state of Maryland. CAPITAL Port-au-Prince CLIMATE Being a tropical climate, Haiti is hot and humid during most months of the year. Some areas of the country, however, can be almost desert-like and dry where the mountains cut off the trade winds. TERRAIN AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Most of Haiti is rugged and mountainous. Mass deforestation and poor environmental controls have left large areas of the country bare and contributed to large-scale loss of topsoil. Much of the remaining forested land is being cleared and used as fuel. NATURAL HAZARDS Haiti lies in the middle of the hurricane belt and subject to severe storms from June to October. In 2010, Haiti experienced a magnitude 7 earthquake. DEMOGRAPHICS Haiti has a very large young population, in part because of a high birthrate and shorter life expectancies – 37% of Haitians are younger than 14, 59% are between 15 and 64 years old, and just 3% are 65 and older. POPULATION Over 9 million…

Dave Young, Executive Director of Heart of God Haiti, and his wife, Julie, would love the opportunity to share their vision for the children in Haiti with you.
Dave and Julie have a powerful testimony of how God brought their son, RJ, out of the devastation in Haiti immediately after the earthquake of 2010. Dave frequently speaks to churches, organizations, associations, and schools about life in Haiti and the challenges children face in a land where poverty is widespread and intricately woven into every part of the culture. Both David and Julie are CPAs, working full-time in the accounting firm they own; they both serve on the Board of Directors of Heart of God International Ministries.

The Orphanage, located in the mountainous region of Kenscoff, is a testimony in itself–one you will want to learn about. Following a rough dirty road through the nearby village, the Orphanage is set on the side of a hill; clouds often roll in, blanketing the site with a slight mist filtering the sun.
The children are safe and well cared for. A recent unannounced visit proved beneficial as we found things in order, although repairs were needed to the facility. With very limited resources, much has been done to protect and nurture the children who are happy and secure. Our goal is to provide those things necessary to complete the government certification program while strengthening the ministry to the local community.
In order to maintain the Orphanage, we need your help.
Please consider making a one-time or monthly donation to help cover the necessary expenses for the children we love, care for and mentor.
