Our First Fiscal Sponsor! Our Haitian Heroes

Time is of the essence to relief efforts in Haiti. That is why the Community Foundation of Utah is serving as a fiscal agent for Our Haitian Heroes, a vehicle through which those who admire and honor the Haitian people can contribute to projects addressing the immediate needs and future well-being of underprivileged communities and individuals in Haiti.

Our Haitian Heroes is a collaborative international charitable organization, with no religious or political affiliation, comprised of dedicated individuals who have devoted themselves, their time, and their talents to serving and living among the Haitian people.  Our Haitian Heroes will fund and support the reconstruction of homes, orphanages and hospitals, and provide microfinancing, mentoring programs, and scholarships business to facilitate self-reliance.

The organization is the first ‘fiscal sponsorship’ undertaken by the Community Foundation of Utah. We will process donations to the agency and monitor their work so that donors can be assured that their gift is tax deductible. We will serve in this role until OHH receives its own tax exemption from the IRS.

The Community Foundation of Utah is dedicated to improving Utah’s future by facilitating innovative approaches to social problems.  Leaders like the individuals behind Our Haitian Heroes are crucial to any success we’ll have in this effort, and we are extremely pleased to be a part of their commitment to the people of Haiti.

You can make a donation of any size to their work on our secure web site. Just click the Donate Now button.
