About WORK

WORK is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that accompanies families in Haiti out of poverty through good, dignified jobs.

Our wrap around service model includes access to health care, education assistance, and job training and placement.

We accompany families, lift communities and invest in good, dignified work.
