Who are we partnering with?

Chalice Partnership. Chalice is a Canadian, Catholic child sponsorship organization that works in impoverished communities to help struggling families overcome the cycle of poverty. Education is the first and most important step in breaking that cycle. Sponsorship gives children the support needed to overcome obstacles so they can attend and stay in school, and allows families to provide nutritious food and better care for their children. Children are selected for sponsorship based on need and family circumstances, regardless of race, age, ability, gender, or religion. Chalice operates in over 50 sites across various countries, including: Bolivia, Chile, Ghana, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Kenya, Paraguay, Peru, the Philippines, Tanzania, Ukraine, and Zambia. Their mission is to reveal God’s love in action by serving the poor, with the Global Catholic Community.
All Foundation Montesinos Orphans are sponsored by US and Canadian families and Chalice is a critical partner in supporting the safety, livelihood, and success of the children & staff.  We are honored to partner with Chalice to help provide a better life for the wonderful young adults and children of the Foundation.
 
 
Kids Connection Haiti (KCH)’s mission is to empower at-risk young adults in Haiti to become contributing, self-sufficient community members through education, life skills training, community service, mentorship, and career development. KCH has partnered with Fondation Montesinos to prepare our older youth for the transition from living at the orphanage towards successfully independent living in Haiti, by offering life skills and career development workshops, as well individual coaching.
 
 
Food for the Poor Partnership. (FFP) is an ecumenical Christian nonprofit organization based in Coconut Creek, Florida, United States that provides food, medicine, and shelter, among other services, to the poor in Latin America and the Caribbean.  FFP supplies the orphans with their daily food needs with vital shipments of food supplies, clothing, and other critical needs.  FFP was the primary organization that funded and built the school and orphanage in Titanyen, Haiti.  They remain a steadfast supporter and lifeline for the children and young adults of Fondation Montesinos since moving to Port-au-Prince to escape violence in Titanyen last year.
