Overview

Haiti Partnership Grants

Purpose: Fund activities that enable schools to establish, enhance, or expand partnership programs with Episcopal schools in Haiti. Historically funded delegation travel to Haiti for schools establishing new or strengthening existing partnerships.

Geographic Scope: NAES member schools in the United States partnering with Episcopal schools in Haiti

Background: The Episcopal Diocese of Haiti is the largest diocese of the Episcopal Church and includes over 250 Episcopal schools. Over 60 Episcopal schools in the United States maintain partnerships with Haitian Episcopal schools. The need for mission and partnership work is critical for long-term rebuilding of Haiti following the 2010 earthquake and recent years of unrest.

Current Status: SUSPENDED - The current political situation in Haiti precludes visiting Haiti. The grant program to support schools visiting their Haitian partners is currently suspended.

  • Schools must be NAES members for both the current year of application and the year in which grant is received

  • All NAES dues must be paid in full
