Families in Haiti are struggling with hunger and despair. Discover how “Stretch Out Your Hand” provides critical aid and how you can help bring immediate relief.
Through your support of Stretch Out Your Hand, we’ve seen lives changed. In 2023, we provided assistance to 137 families, distributing over 5,800 pounds of food. In 2024, we stretched further, reaching 444 families with almost 17,000 pounds of food. These numbers are incredible, but they also underscore the growing gap between urgent needs and available resources.
Every day, our Haitian team encounters families facing heartbreaking choices: food or shelter, medicine or education. These families cannot wait; with your help, they won’t have to.
Through this initiative, our Haitian staff distributes food, provides medical care, offers spiritual guidance, and meets urgent needs. This work is transforming lives, but we can’t do it without you.
One family shared how a simple delivery of rice, beans, and cooking oil brought them to tears. “We thought no one saw us, but this visit reminded us we are not alone.” Your gift does more than provide necessities—it restores dignity and hope to those who need it most.
Time is of the essence. Without immediate action, many families will continue to face hunger, illness, and despair. But together, we can make a difference today.
