Haiti is a place of culture, beauty, and great people. One of the biggest issue with this great country is poverty. Watching children in these poverty-stricken circumstances made people move to actions. The Gayak Foundation was launched in 2004 to help the less fortunate children of Haiti bringing the hope of Jesus Christ through evangelism, mentoring, and education.
The Gayak Foundation is now an international foundation that aims at making a difference in the world. We are a Christian foundation and we aspire to reach all men, women, and children across the globe to bring love, hope, and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Our purpose
The purpose of the foundation is to provide comprehensive support and assistance to families in need. We are dedicated to improving the well-being and quality of life for families by offering a range of services and resources. Our primary goal is to address the unique challenges faced by families, such as financial instability, access to education, healthcare, and social support. Through our programs, we aim to empower families to overcome obstacles, strengthen their relationships, and create a nurturing environment for their children. We strive to foster a sense of community and inclusivity, ensuring that every family has the opportunity to thrive and succeed. Gayak Foundation is committed to making a lasting impact on the lives of many families in Les Cayes, Haiti.
One of the foundation's proudest endeavors was our mission trip to les Cayes, Haiti in August 2021 when a devastating earthquake struck the land and left the south region of the country in harsh circumstances. We traveled to Haiti, fed 200 families living in tents, and distributed over 100 toiletry kits and hygiene products. We provided clothes for children and newborns at the hospital. The foundation help built a home of a single mother with four children. Our labor lifted People's spirits.
One of the main pillars of the Gayak Foundation is Youth Development. We believe with prayer, strategies, passion and mentorship, we can unleash children's full potential to achieve whatever they put their minds into
We have plenty of projects and initiatives on the horizon such as , a magnet School, health clinic and a home for our sponsored child. We would love your participation in any way you can, Financially, spiritually or voluntarily.
