Ayiti Now Corp is a non-profit created for empowering marginalized children through education and support.

Haiti Now ("Ayiti Now" from local Haitian Creole language) is a 501(c)(3) organization based in the US and founded by Mr. Alex Lizzappi. Alex visited Haiti before & after the 2010 earthquake and was concerned by the state of the "Restavek" children there. Restavek is the local term for children from less well-off families sent to work for well-off families. These children are often abused and put in situations of domestic servitude. Haiti Now’s mission, supported currently by more than 80 volunteers contributing flexible hours, is to help these Restavek children through educational and support programs, such as the school sanctuary being built there.

While Haiti Now strives to fulfill its mission through the commitment of over 80 volunteers in different functional areas, new volunteers are needed as the organization grows and people leave. This position can help individuals with a career interest in HR gain experience through a flexible schedule working remotely, all for a good cause.

For support, we have a project management structure in place, mapped out workflows for different HR processes including on-boarding and off-boarding, organizational charts to represent roles within the organization, highlighted priority positions that need people sooner than later and are currently in the process of creating a Customer Relationship Management database in order to help manage our volunteers better.

When onboarding at Haiti Now your first assignment will be to start a fundraising campaign unless your employer has a matching program for volunteering hours. Haiti Now will provide further guidance for you to have a quick and successful fundraiser.
