More from Haitian Handmade!
Haitian Handmade is a program designed to sell products made in Haiti back here in the US in order to help the artisan that created the product and Servants for Haiti. This December we kicked off the selling of these products at a local craft fair. Veronica Gadbois, who is heading up our fundraising for Servants for Haiti sold Haitian products at the local Westford Bazaar. This was a huge success for Servants for Haiti and the artisans in Haiti as this was the first time their sewing products were sold to the public back in the US. Servants for Haiti just started a ...
Haitian Handmade
If you know anything about Servants for Haiti, you know we'll do whatever it takes to help our Haitian friends. In that spirit, we're branching out to do more.
SFH is spinning off a "subsidiary" called Haitian Handmade to market and sell products created by Haitian artisans. In the process, we'll be providing incomes for families who might otherwise not be able to raise their own children, a common occurrence and one of the reasons for the proliferation of so-called orphanages in Haiti.

SFH Teams: An impartial view
Usually, we post trip reports from participants on our teams. During the summer 2013 trip, however, an EMT who was in Haiti and working with our group made the following observation about our team:
Hey everybody, here is hope and reason not give up on our young people. This is a group of high school students that were in last week. Their leaders, Laurae, Doug, and Kirk told me they were workers, but me being me and a skeptic thought I will give them a few little jobs around. Man, I was wrong. These young men and young ladies worked this poor old country boy ragged. ...
2013 Trivia Recap
SFH Trivia night was once more a smashing success, an annual tradition that has become a peak moment of the Merrimack Valley social calendar. About 150 people came out to support the great work happening in Haiti with the assistance and support of Servants for Haiti.
Biznis Pam was featured as the recipient of the event's income. Two videos of Monite Métélus-Louis (viewable here and here), founder and director of the business training and micro-loan program, were shown to let people know where their giving would be working. That set the tone for some frenzied ...
New businesses coming
Ten new businesses are in the works from the latest batch of graduates of our Biznis Pam program. Their start-ups will be funded by loans from Servants for Haiti using your donations. Here is a sampling of a few of them:
A young woman of 29 with a 2-year-old daughter will be selling clothes and cosmetic products.
A 49-year-old woman with three children will market clothing and curtains, sheets, and tablecloths.
One enterprising woman (40, with two children) will be offering building materials for sale. Certainly her products will be in great demand in a ...
