Haiti Mission

Summer Trip To Haiti: June 4-11

Riverside has been providing orphan care in Haiti since September of 2010, eight months after the devastating earthquake that made the country even more unstable and killed hundreds of thousands of people. High orphan rates were already an issue in the poorest country in the Western hemisphere, but the problem became worse due to the deaths and destruction brought about by the earthquake.

We have built relationships with Shiloh Children's Home, a ministry of Harvest International, and with Global Orphan Project, both very worthy ministries doing great work in Haiti.

In June, we are taking a trip through Visiting Orphans, during which we will identify an orphanage that will be a long-term partner for our community. Our goal is to work with their local church to empower them in the care of the children and the community at large.
