Question 1

Is there a fee to participate?

Accepted Answer

No, participation is completely free. Once you register, you and your city team can set a fundraising goal for your city. We’re both walking and raising funds — channeling the collective energy of the walk into tangible support for Haitian-led, community-driven projects in Ayiti.

Question 2

What is Ayiti Community Trust?

Accepted Answer

We are a community foundation that invests in sustainable development projects in Ayiti that focus on civic education, environment and entrepreneurship. We support community-led and Haitian-led projects to ensure long-lasting impact.

Question 3

Is this a fundraiser?

Accepted Answer

Yes! The purpose of the walk is two-fold: 1) Come together as the Haitian Diaspora for something rather symbolic and significant (almost like a Haitian pilgrimage). 2) Raise funds to support Haitian organizations that are doing great work in Ayiti that need more backing.

Question 4

What do I have to gain?

Accepted Answer

Connecting to your culture, celebrating the courageous acts of your ancestors, and paying it forward by supporting the courageous acts of present-day Haitians who are building sustainable projects in Ayiti. At a minimum though - you're getting some exercise!
