Speak Up for Haiti

Raise your voice to protect lives in Haiti

Contact Your Representatives Today

Haiti is facing an urgent humanitarian crisis. Violent gangs have taken over cities. Including Central Plateau, where One 17 International has worked for over 13 years in education. Our students, staff, and community are in imminent danger. The situation is heartbreaking and out of control, and we need your help.

Your voice matters. Elected officials are most responsive to the people they represent. By writing or calling your U.S. Senators and House Representatives, you can urge them to take action to protect lives and support stability in Haiti.

Subject: Urgent Request for U.S. Support in Haiti

Dear (insert name), 

I am writing to you this morning out of desperate pleas and an urgent request for our government to intervene in the humanitarian crisis taking place in Haiti. Our organization, One 17 International, has been working in education in the Central Plateau region for 13 years. The current gang takeover puts our staff, students, and community in imminent danger. We are doing our best to support from afar but our ability to intervene is limited at this time as access to even basic resources is currently cut off. Please, we urgently request that the US government supports the people of Haiti, our neighbors, our friends. Thank you for your continued support and advocacy for the people of Haiti.

Sincerely,
[Your Full Name]
[Your City, State]
[Your Email Address]
