Learn 4 Life, Inc.

What Learn 4 Life, Inc. does

Learn 4 Life, Inc. is a Pennsylvania-incorporated 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization founded in 2010 in response to the Haiti earthquake and the resulting surge in the country's orphan population. It delivers holistic, faith-based child welfare services in Haiti through three operating programs: a Love2Learn Kids Club (currently serving 50 children at Trou Gilot near Cabaret), a network of family-style Children's Homes (each housing 8-10 children with a house mother and helpers), and an Educational Enrichment Model covering cognitive, physical, and spiritual development. The organization is also planning a 20-acre development near Port-au-Prince that will add clustered homes, a vocational training center, and a community medical clinic, modeled on the Watoto approach in Uganda.

Revenue is generated entirely from charitable contributions: a recurring Child Sponsorship program at $40 per child per month, a Children's Home Sponsorship at $500 per month or $5,000 per year, plus one-time and memorial general donations, in-kind gifts, and stock/estate contributions. The organization markets through its website (welearn4life.org), an online donation platform (aplos.com), child sponsorship, and volunteer/travel trips to Haiti. It commits 100% of donations to benefit the children, supported by a US staff that works on a volunteer basis.

Operations are anchored by local Haitian leadership (Executive Director Haiti Yvette Angervil-Benoit, MD, and General Director Stanley Benoit) under a US-based board (President Francisco J. Batres, former Bristol-Myers Squibb VP; Secretary Elizabeth Batres), with church partners (Eglise de Dieu, Eglise Saintete D'Emmanuel) providing community access and accountability. There is no proprietary technology platform, no app, and no disclosed digital or AI infrastructure; the service delivery model is labor-intensive and field-based.

Direct peers

• Holt International: Faith-rooted nonprofit focused on child welfare, family-based care, and education for orphaned and vulnerable children internationally. Comparable in residential care model, sponsorship funding, and emphasis on permanency and self-sufficiency.
• Children's HopeChest: Faith-based child sponsorship nonprofit partnering with local churches in developing countries to support vulnerable children, often through sponsorship, education, and community development — closely matching Learn4Life's church-partner Kids Club approach.
• Watoto Child Care Ministries: Uganda-based nonprofit operating family-style village clusters of homes with house mothers, vocational training, and medical care for orphaned and vulnerable children. Learn4Life explicitly cites the Watoto model as inspiration for its planned 20-acre campus.

Broad incumbents

• ChildFund International: Long-established child sponsorship and youth development NGO with programs in Haiti and other developing countries. Direct overlap in recurring child sponsorship, education, and youth development programming for vulnerable children.
