Building a brighter future for the youth in rural
Friends of Haiti in New York (FOHNY) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization whose mission is to assist impoverished families in rural Haiti.
What started as a group of volunteers building a primary school has grown into an organization that strives to address all of the multi-faceted needs of the community of Bois Tombe, Haiti.

Building a new sustainable Haiti
In 2007, the first seed was planted when 60 children gathered under a tarp as a make-shift primary school. Two years later, thanks to a $15,000 donation from the Spanish government, we were able to build a solid structure with four classrooms.
