Overview

Mission

Our mission is to strengthen local Fond-des-Blancs, Haiti-based organizations, and coordinate their work towards a shared vision of an empowered and economically competitive community.

What it reported doing in 2025

ADF Haiti strengthens the operational capacity of local civic and nonprofit organizations by providing technical, financial, and in-kind support focused on digital literacy, management, and business administration. ADF has launched targeted training programs in digital competency, including Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Excel and Word through Certiport. These programs are open to the general public, including youth, community leaders, and professionals, offering them the opportunity to gain practical skills and earn internationally recognized certifications. The program helps enhance the efficiency of participants' work by equipping them with globally acknowledged credentials and expanding their professional opportunities. Additionally, we supported the creation of a Rotating Credit Fund (Mityél Solidarite) in partnership with local groups to improve access to capital for implementing sustainable, community-based development projects. ADF Haiti works directly with local organizations to establish and strengthen their accounting and bookkeeping systems, enabling them to meet reporting requirements and improve financial transparency. Furthermore, the organization distributed school materials to schools across the Fond-des-Blancs district to support student learning outcomes and help address resource gaps in the local education system.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 81% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
