What We Do
More than 30 years since it was founded, Paradis de Indiens has expanded into a multi-faceted development program that includes microfinance loans for local businesses and poverty-reduction activities such as beekeeping, embroidery, woodworking and fruit-drying. Environmental efforts are focused on reforestation – a key priority for tree-stripped Haiti.
