Haiti Now

What Haiti Now does

Haiti Now (legally Ayiti Now Corp, EIN 27-1800026) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2009 and headquartered in Miami Beach, Florida, that operates direct programs for Restavek children in Haiti. The organization's core offering is the Learning Center & Safe House in Port-au-Prince, an integrated program that combines safe housing, accelerated education, mental health support, and business incubation specifically for Restavek girls, supplemented by standalone Accelerated Education, Business Incubation, Mental Health, and Safe House service lines. Technology is used selectively to support rather than deliver the mission: Salesforce CRM (provided via Salesforce Foundation) is used for program management and beneficiary tracking, Tableau dashboards are used for impact reporting, and a Cody AI-powered chatbot and a School Manager App extend digital reach.

The organization is funded entirely through philanthropic revenue streams: individual donations, corporate charitable partnerships (Amazon, Walmart, American Express), online fundraising campaigns (Facebook Fundraising, Give Lively), and foundation and institutional grants. There is no commercial pricing; all beneficiary services are free of charge. The organization operates with 51-100 employees, maintains a US administrative office in Miami Beach and an operations office in Port-au-Prince, and has established strategic partnerships with UNICEF, IBESR, Brigade De Protection Des Mineurs, Partner In Health, Thomson Reuters Foundation, Salesforce, Good360, and Taproot. The competitive positioning emphasizes a comprehensive long-term model over short-term aid, targeting the structural drivers of the Restavek phenomenon in Haiti.
