THIS IS OUR STORY...
Action for Haiti Community Development
(AHCD) was established in February 2021 by a group of young Haitian immigrants
as a volunteer-based initiative. The organization emerged in response to the
COVID-19 pandemic, aiming to support immigrant communities already facing
deep-seated social and economic inequalities. Throughout the pandemic, AHCD
played a critical role on the front lines, assisting state and local
governments in their efforts to serve and roll out emergency services to
vulnerable Haitian communities.
Since its
founding, AHCD has grown rapidly into a leading community-based organization,
addressing the evolving needs of Haitian immigrants and other underserved
groups in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Expanding beyond its initial
mission, AHCD has evolved into a humanitarian organization that provides both
immediate relief and long-term recovery solutions for disadvantaged communities
in Haiti.
Operating in
both the United States and Haiti, AHCD works to uplift and empower communities
through targeted initiatives. In the United States, the organization supports
Haitian newcomers and other immigrant populations by offering educational
programs, leadership development, community organizing, and safe spaces for
growth—helping individuals build a brighter future. In Haiti, AHCD operates on
the ground, delivering essential services to disadvantaged children and
families while fostering community-driven relief efforts in vulnerable areas.
