Center of Hope (Haiti) is the fulfillment of the vision of Emmanuel St. Juste. Emmanuel was born in Hinche, Haiti, where his parents raised five boys and five girls amid abject poverty. Emmanuel was trained in the ministry in Haiti and came to Stamford, Connecticut, in 1974, where he formed the French Speaking Baptist Church of Stamford.
In 2004, one of our Advisory Board members, James Lipscomb, enabled the formation of Center of Hope (Haiti), Inc. and its tax-exempt status under Internal Revenue Code 501(c)(3). Since this early beginning, Center of Hope Haiti has received support from individuals, businesses, charitable organizations around the world and many volunteers and we are very grateful that such support continues. Today, the Center of Hope (Haiti) is not only a 501(c)3 tax exempt corporation, but also an approved NGO in good standing in Haiti.
We celebrated our grand opening in October 2010 and began our first class, 15 first graders, in October, 2011.
