Join Habitat AmeriCorps!

Haiti Partnership

Habitat for Humanity of Kitsap County is pleased to partner with Habitat for Humanity Haiti in building homes, communities and hope!

Through the ancient practice of tithing – that is, giving one-tenth of one’s income to support the work of God – we are helping to transform the lives of our Haitian neighbors.  The average cost of constructing a new home in Haiti is approximately $12,700 – a small price in our economy, but far out of reach for most Haitians.  Over the past four fiscal years (July 2019 – June 2023), Kitsap Habitat has sent nearly $100,000 to Haiti – enough for seven homes!  

Habitat Haiti’s current projects include the following:  

  • Working to rebuild communities destroyed by a 7.2 magnitude earthquake in August of 2021.
  • Training women in construction in order that they might earn a living wage and attain financial security.
  • Providing housing for the elderly in low-income, rural areas.
