Midwest Haiti Partners is group of organizations and individuals who have worked in Haiti or are currently working in Haiti. The purpose of Midwest Haiti Partners website is to provide a central location that can be used as a resource website for anyone seeking information or ideas before starting a project in Haiti. On this site you will find project ideas, how to accomplish the project, and contact information for people who will help you along the way. Midwest Haiti Partners main goal is to provide information that others may find useful to start and finish projects in Haiti. Because many have tried and failed in Haiti it is the hope of this group to help you succeed by providing information that others may have shared with us before we started a project or that we learned the hard way.
