Saint Rock Haiti Foundation

What Saint Rock Haiti Foundation does

Saint Rock Haiti Foundation (SRHF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2002 and headquartered at 372 Granite Ave, Suite 1, Milton, Massachusetts (Tax ID 06-1645116), operating two permanent health centers and supporting a portfolio of education, clean water, agriculture, and economic development programs in the rural Saint Rock and Carrefour region of Ouest Haiti. The organization serves approximately 100,000 registered patients across its two health centers (Saint Rock Centre de Santé and Macaco Centre de Santé, established 2021), provides daily meals, healthcare, and education to 1,000+ students through five primary schools (with a sixth, the ICGS/James Pierre School, opened in Fall 2025), and operates a network of seven Ministry of Health–trained community health workers.

The core healthcare offering is the Sante Lakay (Home for Health) integrated health services system, launched in 2025 on Dimagi's CommCare mobile platform, which unifies clinical services, pharmacy, laboratory, and electronic medical records across both centers under a Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (MEAL) framework. The technology stack is mobile-first and designed for frontline health workers in low-resource settings, with longitudinal patient tracking and decision support. Beyond direct clinical services, SRHF runs a university scholarship program (established 2015 via Flatley Foundation grant), teacher training partnerships with InnovEd and Université Quisqueya, a school feeding program, clean water cistern installation, community gardens and chicken coops, and micro-loans for economic development.

SRHF generates no fee-based revenue. Its revenue model consists of diversified philanthropic contributions: one-time and recurring individual donations, donor-advised funds, IRA charitable rollovers, stock gifts, planned/legacy giving, employer matching programs, peer-to-peer fundraising, fiscal-year-end match challenges, and annual galas held at Granite Links in Quincy, MA. The organization is led by President & CEO Jocelyn Bresnahan, DNP (first CEO since August 2018), with Dr. Jean Kenes Eloy as Chief Medical & Country Director and Rock Déliné as Director of Haitian Operations. SRHF is governed by a Board of Directors chaired by Hugh Cole (Chief Business Officer, Jounce Therapeutics), holds Charity Navigator Four-Star ratings (2025 and 2026) and a Candid Transparency Seal, and reports 70+ Haitian staff in Haiti plus 6 US-based staff. Notable constraints include the suspension of mobile clinic operations due to unsafe travel conditions in Haiti and exposure to USAID funding cuts affecting the broader Haiti humanitarian ecosystem.
