Haiti has the twenty-second highest rate of HIV in the world – more than anywhere else in the Caribbean. Our Youth AIDS Awareness Project, funded by the Coca-Cola Foundation, worked from 2007 to 2009 in inner-city Port-au-Prince to reduce the transmission of HIV/AIDS among teenagers and young adults. The project brought HIV/AIDS awareness to 250,000 people through mass media campaigns and organized 152 health education events at local high schools, engaging 4,593 youth.

OUR IMPACT

Together with our local partners, we are improving health and nutrition, expanding access to education, strengthening climate resiliency, enhancing people’s livelihoods, and ensuring communities are governed more inclusively. In each project, we track our goals, monitor the progress, and evaluate impact.
