Mission Statement
The Lamp Foundation, known as Lamp for Haiti, is a nonprofit, nonsectarian, apolitical organization founded in 2006. Our primary activity is the delivery of health care and humanitarian assistance in Cité Soleil, a section of 300,000 residents on the edges of Port-au- Prince. Our community of Bwa Nèf in Cité Soleil is among the poorest in the Western Hemisphere.
Description
We believe that we are all one human family and that the people of Cité Soleil represent tremendous human potential. Our aim is to empower the community, through our services, to achieve this potential. We believe the hope for a brighter future in Haiti begins with improved health care. Ill health is a barrier to self-reliance and we have the means to overcome this barrier!
