We organize the mission of Union in Action for Haiti around the idea of a God-centered and self-sustaining community. We have established certain goals, both short term and long term to help us bring those ideas into reality. Our hope is that the students will learn the value of serving their own community for the emancipation of everyone living in that community.

Short term:

  • Raise funds to:
    • Financially support the school board and the parents who are not capable to pay for their children to continue to go to school (support to the baord in terms of payments for the teachers; funds to acquire school supplies. This will allow for lower tuition for the parents). This will be supplemental to the support that they are currently receiving from the mission now.
    • Acquire the appropriate documents for UIAFH to become a legal organization in the state of Michigan and nationwide, for the purpose of organizing fundraiser. (See Organization Objectives below).
  • Long Term:
    • To help with the construction of the classrooms for students, a better facility.
    • Provide a nutritional meal to the students during the school day in order to help better assimilate the materials that are being taught to them.
    • Promote physical education (outlets for the children to let loose: soccer, volley-ball and other games that promote physical well-being).
    • Teach the students and community about diseases and preventive measures against those diseases.
    • Build or help build with the help of interested partners a Health Center for the small community.
    • Food and clean water. (Can include education on how to reach water more efficiently; agricultural education: planing of trees…)
    • Help build a sustaining community by integrating renewable energy, fresh water access, and economic development.
