A new school year!

Fewer than 30% of Haitians reach high school, often dropping out because they can’t afford the supplies or to work for a living. We are working hard towards the goal of free education for all children at the ODEVICH school in Ferrier, Haiti.

On the ground in Haiti!

Last month’s major earthquake left thousands of Haitians homeless and at risk of going hungry on Haiti’s southern Peninsula. ODEVICH recently brought emergency supplies to Haitians in Baradères, a town seven miles from the epicenter of the earthquake. The area was also recently hit by Hurricane Grace. Working on the ground with Pastor Escar Jean to reach families in need, we arrived just in time to provide essentials such as drinking water, cooking oil, and grains. Thank you for helping us to help them!

“I would call upon individuals and governments around the world to focus their efforts to help Haiti rebuild. It’s a tragedy, but it’s also an opportunity for humanity to wake up and play its part.”

The Valley News recently interviewed ODEVICH founder Bise Wood Saint Eugene in an article on the Upper Valley’s response to the recent 7.2 magnitude earthquake in Haiti.
