Skillsets
The work being done by Lespwa Lavi would not be possible without the tremendous support of volunteers and contracted professionals. We network with many organizations in Haiti to provide safe and valuable opportunities. The possibilities are endless! Whether you are interested in traveling to Haiti, or lending your expertise to a project stateside, we need you. If you have a skill that is not listed here, contact us today.

Is hope for Haiti on your heart? Lespwa Lavi always suggests starting with child sponsorship. By becoming a child sponsor, you are directly impacting a child in Haiti. It’s a great way to get to know them, get to know our mission, and see it play out in a tangible way. Become a Sponsor
