Our Mission

Finding Inspiration in Every Turn

The 5 loaves and 2 Fish Foundation's mission is to fight extreme poverty in some areas of Haiti. In truth, it is difficult to stand idly by in the face of the dire poverty in which our Haitian brothers and sisters are struggling. It's no secret that Haiti is the poorest country in the Northern Hemisphere, where around 90% of the world's population lives. Social needs are significant.

The majority of Haitians live in unemployment and are below the threshold of underdevelopment. Food insecurity is catastrophic, especially for children. Usually, people come back to church with all their problems. In Haiti, church leaders do not know what to do with the significant number of social needs of brothers and sisters. Some of them cannot go to church for months because they lack shoes and clothes. Some are regularly unable to do laundry for lack of soap.

Many are unable to have a songbook and even a Bible for lack of money; Many go through the day without finding anything to boil. It is a situation of extreme poverty, a rather sad situation. Faced with this terrible situation, the 5 loaves and 2 fish foundation feels called upon to do something, if only to relieve some brothers and sisters. The needs are many. Thousands of people are waiting for shoes; thousands are waiting for something to appease their hunger; thousands are also waiting for a small sum of money to start a small business in order to meet specific basic needs.

Now, just as Jesus fed thousands of hungry people with only 5 loaves of bread and two fish, the 5 loaves and two fish Foundation, which started with $ 600 in Bassin-Bleu in April 2021, hopes with God's help to help people. Thousands of our Haitian brothers and sisters live below the threshold of underdevelopment.
