Beauty Out Of Ashes

Our Mission: 1.) To transform the lives of marginalized children, especially the vulnerable children, affected by the many natural disasters that have displaced many families and increased the level of poverty to a dangerous level. 2.) To improve the quality of life for orphans, Restevak (child slaves), and street children by providing a home and taking care of all their daily needs. 3.) To provide resources, training, education and support to break the cycle of poverty and Restevak slavery.

Beauty Out of Ashes is an IBSER approved long-term residential foster home located in Fort Jacques, Haiti. We believe that every child has rights and one of those rights is to be loved as God first loved us. We also believe that every child deserves a chance and through the following programs we help give them the chance to reach adulthood and their God-given potential. 

Safety

We believe that every child has the right to feel safe and be protected. We rent a safe home in a secure location and have built relationships in the community so whether the girls are inside the walls or out they known that they are protected.

Counseling

We believe that mental health is as important as physical health. We strive to provide the support our kids need for proper psychological and emotional development. We will begin working with a licensed counselor this fall.

Nutrition

We believe that every child has a right to proper nutrition for their growth and development. We buy local fresh fruits and vegetables to support the community and to give our girls the nutrition rich diet they had previously been deprived of.

Education

We believe that every child has a right to an education. Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and to building self-confidence. We are committed to helping our girls overcome cognitive obstacles and reach their full potential.  

Medical Care

We believe that every child has a right to proper healthcare and medical treatment. A local nurse is on call and visits the girls periodically. She monitors their growth and treats them for any illnesses as well as preventing infection.

Spiritual

We believe that true freedom can only be found in Christ. We are committed to raising our girls in a Christian atmosphere and teaching them about God's unconditional love for them. We attend church together as a family.
