WORK accompanies families in Haiti out of poverty through good, dignified jobs. We believe that dignified jobs end poverty. We utilize a holistic family and community-oriented approach of accompaniments to address the challenges of poverty. We started our work in one community in Port-au-Prince, called Menelas, with a population of around 10,000 family members, and have expanded into communities in waste collection with our partner, First Mile. Our goal is simple: to place two heads of households into a good, dignified job so that each family and in turn, their community can pull themselves out of poverty forever.
