[Help Now]( The upheaval has created an extremely dangerous environment for kids across Haiti, especially in the capital city of Port-au-Prince. What dangers are children facing right now? - Exposure to violence: Witnessing or experiencing violence can have lasting physical and psychological effects. - Malnutrition and hunger: Food shortages and rising prices have deepened the country’s severe food insecurity. - Education disruptions: With many schools closing due to security issues, kids risk falling behind. - Lack of protection: Forced displacement and migration can separate kids from their families, putting them at higher risk of abuse. - Limited access to healthcare: With many hospitals closed, children are without essential care. “These are children whom God so desperately loves. I’ve heard from our local staff in Haiti that children are asking their parents heartbreaking questions,” says Edgar Sandoval Sr., President and CEO of World Vision. “Questions like, ‘Mom, when can we go home?’ ‘Why can’t we play with our friends?’ ‘ Why can’t we go to school?’ ‘When can we eat?” World Vision is already responding with food, clean water, and psychosocial support for the most vulnerable children, alongside our existing programs that aim to equip families and communities for resilience and more secure futures. We’ve developed deep connections to local churches and communities in Haiti over the past 45 years — allowing us greater reach during these critical times.
