The proverb says, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.” C2C goes one step further: we help the community get access to the lake. That is how a self-sufficient community is created.
This is the essence of C2C creating self-sufficient communities by working with the community –– so that hopes become realities and the cycle reaffirms itself. We believe our unique model provides a way to reach beyond the pleas and the headlines, as well as the occasional miracle, to result in rebuilding neighborhoods, restoring identity, and rejuvenating the spirit. It only starts with Haïti. We invite you to come to be a part of something greater than yourself!
COMMUNITY REDEFINED
We came because of the earthquake. We stayed because of the people.
On January 12, 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck and devastated the island nation of Haïti. In 35 seconds, over 300,000 people lost their lives and more than 1.5 million lost their homes.
We created Community2Community (C2C), a non-profit service organization in May 2010, to give the Haitian Diaspora and those with a heart for Haïti a platform to come together and share their expertise in a variety of areas – from education to medicine and from carpentry to communications – toward C2C’s goal of establishing lasting change in Haïti, and ultimately, other communities by working with indigenous leadership on the ground.
