      Bethlehem Ministry exists to empower a Haitian organization, Espérance et Vie, through financial and in-kind support. Espérance et Vie develops and sustains programs that work towards bettering the lives of Haitians who are living in poverty in Northeast Haiti. At Espérance et Vie’s school, St. Barthelemy, over 1,000 students receive a quality education provided by the most well-trained teachers in Haiti. Clinique Espérance et Vie, one of the finest medical facilities in Northeast Haiti, provides family medical services, eye and dental care, women’s health services, and pharmacy and lab offerings at low or no cost to the sick and wounded. The agricultural branch of the organization, Jatrofa Projenou, teaches livelihood skills and grows local enterprise through the development and sale of various products. They will plant 60,000 trees around Haiti this year in an effort to reforest the nation. We support Espérance et Vie and trust in the guidance of Haitian leaders. We are confident that together we can make a sustainable and mindful impact that will change the lives of Haitian people. Show less
