About This Cause
Our programs combine Haitian leadership with international partnership, creating lasting solutions to the most pressing challenges facing Haiti. The St. Luke Foundation is a native, Haitian, benevolent organization which both helps those in immediate need, and empowers people whose lives are plagued by poverty and its deadly effects, by enabling community development and helping people determine their own future. The St. Luke Foundation is part of the centuries old tradition of the Roman Catholic Church called corporal and spiritual works of mercy. Simply and beautifully stated, this means “faith in action,” for the betterment of the poor and the betterment of the world. All aspects of the work of the St. Luke Foundation, financial and operational, are carried out in full independence of Church and State. We are respectful of the opinions and beliefs of both those who benefit from our help, as well those who offer help to us. An inspired group of Haitian leaders founded the programs of Fondation St. Luc in 2000 with the support of their mentor, Father Rick Frechette. Together, these leaders worked in the densely populated shantytowns around Port au Prince, running medical clinics and simple schools. Since then, with the assistance of international partners, the programs of Fondation St Luc have grown organically, one steady step at a time, into a multi-tiered and interrelated system of programming.
