GrassRoots United represents a collaboration of ideas, resources, information, and efforts drawn from many smaller institutions and unified towards common goals.
We build critical relationships between local communities and relief organizations, creating strong foundations through which relief workers can pool specialized resources and deliver them to where they are most needed, most experienced, and therefore most effective.

Haiti Outreach is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization in the U.S. and a certified NGO with the Haitian government with the vision that Haiti become a developed country. Our mission is to collaborate with the people of Haiti to build community initiated and maintained projects that advance their development. Our Haitian staff works in rural communities to create clean water infrastructure, mostly wells and some basic water systems, that the community leaders are trained to maintain over many years. Part of this program includes a subscription fee to the water service so there are saved funds for future maintenance and repairs. We also conduct sanitation education and the promotion of latrines for each household. We are committed to long term sustainable development and are not a relief org.

The Haiti School Project was created by Tim Myers and Fred Ireland after hearing a follow-up story on NPR’s Planet Money about a school building that was started in Villard, Haiti. The building of the school had stalled, literally, at the foundation stage. Tim and Fred had never met but heard the same story on NPR and wanted to help. They each independently contacted NPR asking if something more could be done. They were put in touch with each other and this was the genesis of The Haiti School Project.
