Review for Real Hope For Haiti, Noblesville, IN, USA
My husband and I “met” Real Hope for Haiti not long before the earthquake in 2010. We made our first trip that same year. We found a group of people who give all they have (plus some) to meet the needs of the people that come to them. They do a fantastic job providing medically for each person that passes through the clinic, lovingly helping restore health the the malnourished children who come come to the rescue center, and feeding and growing with the entire community spiritually in any way they can.
Despite the constant busy of Real Hope for Haiti, they do a beautiful job of educating volunteers, encouraging missional thinking, and sharing their heart and commissioning from God. In our 6 trips to volunteer we have been able to take part in many parts of the day to day doings of the mission... counting pills, painting a stair well, holding hands with a scared patient, listening to a person’s story, holding a sweet child, holding a light just right for a procedure, and on. I’ve been given the opportunity to learn about another culture, how a nonprofit can impact those it serves while preserving dignity and cultural values, and ways I can support the effort from home. Real Hope for Haiti has become family to us over the past 10 years. They are a blessing and embody the heart of non-profit work.
