The International Village of Hope (TIVOH) was founded by missionary Carol Herget, who spent over 50 years in Jamaica and Haiti improving the lives of local children. The International Village of Hope currently supports three Christian Mission Programs in Haiti (two schools and an orphanage). The schools provide a Christian education and one or two meals a day. In addition, a small meal is served following Sunday service. Quite often this food is the only nourishment these children receive!

The Marechal Christian School was established around 2001 and currently enrolls approximately 280 students. It is run by a local Haitian pastor and is supported solely by contributions. TIVOH is Marechal's major supporter. TIVOH has provided resources to build classrooms, a kitchen and dining area for the school...and installed a well that supplies clean water to the school and the surrounding neighborhood.

The HOS (Heroes of Savannah) Christian School was started by the same Haitian pastor in 2005 and receives the entirety of its support from TIVOH. After its beginnings in a very small Christian Church with one classroom, land was purchased and a new school building was constructed. Find out more in our newsletter!

The Haiti Orphanage Program supports a small orphanage in the Port Au Prince area supervised by a retired U.S.schoolteacher. The orphanage serves the needs of approximately 20 children ranging in age from newborn to early teens.
