Haiti Futur-Canada Association

What Haiti Futur-Canada Association does

Haiti Futur (formally Association HAÏTI FUTUR, SIRET 539 683 219 000 15) is a French-registered non-profit association (loi 1901), founded in 1994 and headquartered at 28 place Jeanne d'Arc, 75013 Paris, with operational bases in Camp Perrin and Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The firmographic record also lists a Toronto locality under the "Haiti Futur-Canada Association" naming, indicating affiliated organizational presence in Canada. The organization operates a Franco-Haitian program portfolio across three verticals: education (digital education via Tableau Numérique Interactif / TNI Interactive Whiteboard deployment, school adoption at 15,000 EUR per school, post-disaster rehabilitation, and the Valencia Montgérard scholarship with Université Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée), entrepreneurship (financial support, electrification, training, and French market access for 500+ Haitian artisans and entrepreneurs), and cultural promotion (annual Salon du Livre Haïtien, multi-city exposition-ventes, the online boutique, and publisher/bookstore partnerships).

The underlying technology stack is operationally pragmatic rather than digitally native: solar-powered electrification of rural schools, TNI classroom hardware with accompanying teacher training, para-cyclonic (hurricane-resistant) construction methods certified via CDAM Les Cayes, and a documentary + 17-video-capsule training library. There is no proprietary software platform, no API, and no mobile application; program delivery is field-based through local coordinators and partner NGOs. Selected quantitative footprint includes 50,000 student beneficiaries, 500+ TNI installed, 1,000+ teachers trained across 10 Haitian departments, 40 schools rehabilitated (290,000 EUR budget), and 500+ entrepreneurs supported.

The revenue model is a diversified non-profit mix: donations and membership fees; institutional grants from Fondation de France (primary funder of the Matthew program), CERBA, EDF Foundation, AFD, USAID, World Bank, Planète Urgence, Banque de France, Conseil Général de l'Essonne, and others; partnership profit-sharing with Rhum Boukman and De Gris; cultural product sales (art, crafts, books) through the online boutique and live exhibitions; and event ticket revenue (30-40 EUR per concert ticket, 50% reduction for children under 12). Customer base spans Haitian school children, Haitian entrepreneurs/artisans, Haitian artists and cultural producers, and the Franco-Haitian diaspora supporter community.

Others

• France Volontaires: French public agency coordinating international volunteering and civic engagement programs, including partnerships with organizations like Planète Urgence (a Haiti Futur partner). Comparable as a France-based international solidarity infrastructure player that channels volunteers and resources toward developing-country programs including Haiti.

Broad incumbents

• Plan International Haiti: International child-rights and education NGO with active programming in Haiti, including school construction and disaster response. Comparable for education programming in Haiti and similar institutional donor relationships, with significantly broader scope.
• World Vision Haiti: Large international humanitarian organization with active Haiti programming in education, child protection, and disaster response. Comparable as an institutional education-and-disaster-response operator in Haiti with similar funder ecosystem (UNICEF, USAID, institutional donors), though at significantly larger scale and broader geographic mandate.
• Partners In Health / Zanmi Lasante: Major global health and social justice NGO with deep, decades-long Haiti operations including hospital networks and community health worker programs. Directly comparable as a large-scale, long-tenured Haiti-focused nonprofit, though PIH's primary mission is health whereas Haiti Futur focuses on education, entrepreneurship, and culture.
• SOS Villages d'Enfants Haiti: International NGO operating alternative care and education programs for children in Haiti. Comparable for the education-infrastructure and child-welfare mission overlap, though focused on residential care rather than Haiti Futur's school adoption model.

Direct peers

• Lambi Fund of Haiti: US-based nonprofit supporting community-based development in Haiti including agriculture, environment, and small enterprise through grants and technical assistance. Comparable as a Haiti-focused diaspora-funded nonprofit working on economic development and rural community empowerment, with similar grant-making and field-implementation model.
• Fonkoze Foundation: Haitian microfinance institution offering financial services, business training, and literacy programs to rural and low-income populations. Directly comparable because both organizations tackle Haitian entrepreneurship and education for underserved communities, with Fonkoze addressing capital access (30% interest rates cited by Haiti Futur as a market pain point) while Haiti Futur addresses broader infrastructure.
• Haitian Education and Leadership Program (HELP): NGO providing university scholarships and leadership training to high-achieving Haitian students, with a return-to-Haiti service commitment. Directly comparable to Haiti Futur's Valencia Montgérard scholarship model; both invest in human capital development of Haitians with explicit contribution-back-to-Haiti clauses.
• Hope for Haiti: US-based nonprofit working in southern Haiti on education, healthcare, and economic development with field operations near Les Cayes. Comparable because both serve southern Haitian departments including Camp Perrin and Les Abricots with education and community development programs in disaster-affected zones.

Emerging players

• Konbit Mizik Pou Lafanmi: Cultural nonprofit promoting Haitian music and artists through international tours and digital platforms. Partially comparable for the cultural-promotion pillar of Haiti Futur's work (annual exhibitions, Book Fair); overlaps on Haitian arts visibility mission though focused specifically on music.
