The mission of Les Étoiles in Haiti is to give dignity and hope to poor and homeless children of Haiti. The charitable organization does this by:
1. Strengthening schools with educational supplies, and infrastructure;
2. Providing scholarships for tuition and funds to buy uniforms, books, school supplies, laptops; and
3. Providing support to children in shelters and those living on the streets through in-kind donations of food, educational materials and clothing.
Now when the children look up at the stars at night, they will not be worrying about how they will survive the next day, but dreaming of their future.

Les Étoiles in Haiti was formed in 2019 out of a desire to help Haitian children living in the streets gain dignity and hope for their future. The idea started in August 2018 when the founder was on a Haitian mission volunteering at several shelters run by a Catholic organization on the border of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Two boys asked her if she would help them go back home to their families and enroll in school. After learning that the $200 school enrollment fee was the only thing keeping them out of school, the founder decided to pay the fees for any boys at the shelters who wanted to go back home and enroll in the 2018 school year. That year, 7 boys took her up on her offer and 5 others attended vocational training.
Seeing the joy in their mothers’ eyes after being reunited with their boys, and the pride the boys felt when they got their first test scores, the founder knew that she wanted to do more. She wanted to help as many of the boys in the shelters as possible. So, she founded a charitable organization.
Since then, the organization has grown to support shelters in Port au Prince and is helping children in the provinces of Haiti with education, food, and healthcare.

One of our goals is to empower Haitian women to make better lives for their children. We provide micro loans to some mothers of our scholarship awardees so that they can start a small business.
For our fundraising activities, we sell handmade beauty products that are either made directly by Haitian women or that contain raw materials made by a cooperative of women in Haiti. These women make coconut oil (kokoye), castor oil (maskreti), and moringa oil (benzoliv). All of these oils are used by women in Haiti to make their hair and skin beautiful. We incorporate these oils into our soaps, hair and body oils, and scrubs.
We pay fair market value for the raw oils, giving these women income to provide for their families. All proceeds from the sale of our products support Les Etoiles in Haiti’s programs in Haiti.
In addition, when we hold events to feed children in shelters, we hire local women to do the cooking. Our goal is to give dignity and hope to the Haitian society by providing jobs, education, healthcare, food, and clothing.
