Haiti Justice Alliance: St. Olaf

Category: Awareness

Our mission is to work for the sustainable structural changes needed in Haiti to provide social, political and economic rights to all Haitians. If you're interested in SOCIAL JUSTICE, HUMAN RIGHTS, or INTERNATIONAL AID - be a part of HJA! Each year, we plan two fundraisers: TIE-DYE FOR HAITI and DATE A CARL FOR HAITI (one each semester). We usually have a speaker FROM HAITI come each spring, past topics include: grassroots aid and international justice. We also GO TO HAITI in the summer, and have opportunities for SUMMER INTERNSHIPS in Haiti! We support the following grassroots programs in Haiti: Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti (http://ijdh.org); What If Foundation (http://whatiffoundation.org); Aristide Foundation for Democracy (http://aristidefoundationfordemocracy.org); SOPUDEP School (http://sopudep.org) and Partners in Health (http://www.pih.org).
