Your Generosity Helps Strengthen Haiti’s Future

Beginning on Giving Tuesday and through the end of December, we invite you to join a powerful movement, HANWASH, focused on one essential goal: ensuring Haitian communities have reliable, sustainable access to clean water, satisfactory sanitation, and improved hygiene.

If you’re already a donor, thank you for your commitment and for working alongside us. If you’re new to HANWASH, we invite you to become part of this movement and make the most of what Giving Tuesday makes possible.

We celebrate small victories that add up to lasting change: With Pignon achieving a 95% revenue recovery rate and aiming to provide reliable, 24-hour pressurized and chlorinated water service, the system stands as a powerful example of what is possible.

These gains are exactly what our HANWASH 2.0 process aims to strengthen and expand. Over the past year, we’ve taken a deep look at our first seven years of work and are refining the systems that make long-term WASH services possible. This means investing not just in infrastructure, but in local leadership, community governance, and the tools Haitian partners need to sustain and grow their own services.

And this giving season, your gift is doubled through the generosity of the Steve and Mary Mattson Fund. This match fuels Haitian-led progress by reinforcing local water systems, improving service quality, and building the foundation for long-term sustainability.

Rotarians have been essential partners from the beginning, and we are grateful for your continued support. But the true power of your Giving Tuesday gift lies in what it makes possible for Haitian families and local water organizations working tirelessly to strengthen their own future.

Your generosity will help:

  • Support community-led planning
  • Strengthen financial and management systems
  • Expand technical capacity and local expertise
  • Advance sustainable WASH services in high-need areas

Your generosity today meets communities where they are and helps move them toward long-term, resilient water access.

With gratitude,
