Empowering Students to Change Haiti

IDADEE

45 Acres of Hope for the Future

Today, IDADEE is vital to the community, transforming lives and caring for 30,000 people daily. The IDADEE campus is a 15 acre plot of land in Balan, Morne Rouge, 15 miles West of Cap-Hatien. The campus houses the Children's Home, Kindergarten, Primary School, Secondary School, Joshua House retreat center, Medical Training Center, a soccer field, playground, and the Community Chapel. Just down the road is the CHIDA Hospital, which provides free to low-cost healthcare for community members. IDADEE owns 30 additional acres of land to be used for future expansion.

Community Development

What began as a dream among a few young Haitian orphans has blossomed into a beacon of hope.

CHIDA Hospital & Surgery Center

The Foundation of a Flourishing Community

Since opening in November of 2017, the CHIDA Hospital has played an important role in increasing the health of the community. In 2024 alone, CHIDA treated 28,565 patients (mobile & in-patient visits).

The Community Health program sends workers into neighborhoods every day to do wellness checks and treat patients before they require emergency care. Through a partnership with Water Mission, PKF & IDADEE have provided safe water and sanitary latrines for 30,000 people in the community.

The new surgery center features multiple modern, fully equipped operating rooms, dramatically increasing CHIDA's capacity to provide life-saving care to patients who need it most.

We are so excited to see this dream become a reality, and we are grateful for the generous partnership of Mission 318 Medical and Brace For Impact 46.

Education

A Quality Education is Important, Especially in Haiti

616 students across the three IDADEE schools receive a high-quality and affordable education that equips them for the future. A majority of students come from homes where full academic scholarships are necessary and provided.

Children’s Home

Providing a Safe and Loving Environment

It all started here in 2011 when IDADEE rescued its first seven children. Now, the Children's Home provides a safe and loving environment for 43 kids. A dedicated staff of 27 employees ensures that each child has what they need to thrive.
