The Vincentian Family Haiti Initiative (VFHI) works in a small locality in the countryside of Haiti. We work with agribusiness (aquaculture and farming) and work on a range of community development projects. We have housing, a deep connection with the community, and have been in the area for 5 years.
We are looking for dynamic individuals excited about working off of the beaten path. Our work is difficult but rewarding. We have space in social media/content development, community development, and farming/agriculture support.
