Uniform Advantage has donated $75,000 to Hope for Haiti in support of clean
drinking water access
This donation will provide 900 water filtration systems to households across Haiti. With these water filtration systems, Haitian communities who previously faced the challenge of unstable clean water supplies will be able to sustain their own clean water for the next 10 years.
Haiti’s Water Crisis
Today, less than half of Haitians in rural areas have access to water, and only an estimated 24% of Haitians living in rural communities have access to a toilet.
Access to clean, fresh water is a main concern in Haiti, where waterborne illnesses, such as typhoid, cholera, and chronic diarrhea are the cause of more than half of the deaths in the country every year. Contaminated water is also one of the leading causes of childhood illness and the very high infant death rate in Haiti (57 for every 1000 births).
about Hope for Haiti
Hope for Haiti is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enriching the quality of life of the Haitian people through the further development of various resources including clean water. The organization was founded more than 30 years ago when humanitarian JoAnne M. Kuehner travelled to Haiti and recognized the challenges that rural communities especially struggled to overcome.
Ever since, Hope for Haiti has worked to become one of the most renowned and trusted relief organizations operating within the country of Haiti.
we are thankful and grateful
“It’s so easy to take for granted the privileges we have, one of those being simple access to clean water. Our partnership with Hope for Haiti gives us the chance to help others thrive. With the 900 filtration systems we are able to fund, we get to invest in love, in community, and in life-affirming resources.”
Susan Masimore, President & CEO of Uniform Advantage
“We are incredibly grateful for the continued support of Uniform Advantage, especially in the aftermath of the August 14th earthquake in southern Haiti. These filters will provide immediate access to clean drinking water for vulnerable families. This is a game changer for community members who have lost their homes and livelihoods. Thank you, Uniform Advantage, for equipping our team with these resources to make a difference.”
Skyler Badenoch, CEO of Hope for Haiti
