Kroka Expeditions

Marlow, NH, USA
Website: 
kroka.org
About Us
Areas of Focus: 
Outdoor Experience/ Retreat
Education
Mission: 

Kroka Expeditions is a non-profit wilderness expedition school based on a year-round, organic farm in Marlow, New Hampshire. We believe that consciousness and altruistic will can be brought forward through a living relationship with the natural world, and by taking our places within the circle of community.

Programs: 

Working with youth ages 9 to 19, Kroka provides unique wilderness programs centered around the cultivation of consciousness and altruistic will. The container of multi-day expeditions traveling through wild places is one that pushes us as human beings to experience vulnerability and reliance on community (both human and non-human). In return, we are rewarded with humility, compassion, elation, a sense of reverence for the natural world, and a deep feeling of belonging.

Grounded on 120 beautiful acres of forest, wetland, and farmland in Marlow, NH, the Kroka Village has grown over the years to become an intentional community of residential staff, a biodynamic farm, and a basecamp that supports the magic of learning and growth to happen. Offering 8-weeks of summer programs, spring and fall programs for school groups, and two semester programs, the Kroka Village is a bustling place!

Hearts with Haiti

Overview
Headquarters: 
Raleigh, NC, USA
Website: 
heartswithhaiti.org
About Us
Areas of Focus: 
International
Mission: 

Hearts with Haiti works in partnership with the St. Joseph Family to create a caring family for Haitians facing the challenges of poverty or disability and fostering skills and opportunities for those in their community. We are dedicated to providing a brighter, more sustainable future for Haiti.

Programs: 

St. Joseph Family is a remarkable organization that ministers to the most disadvantaged populations in Haiti—former street children, child slaves, and individuals with disabilities—and has been doing so for more than 35 years.

Children find their way to the St. Joseph Family in various ways — through placements from Haitian Social Services and other non-profit organizations who know the St. Joseph Family  and who have identified a child who is at-risk or who is abandoned or orphaned; from referrals from pastors, priests, nuns; through referrals from hospitals and clinics who have working relationships with the St. Joseph Family and who have children abandoned at their facilities; from the parents and families of disabled children who cannot care for them at home.  Finally, some of our children were literally abandoned on our doorstep.

While its funding partners, like Hearts with Haiti, work within the US and Canada to raise funds, the long-term strategic goals and the daily operations of the St. Joseph Family are governed by its Haitian Servant Leaders. The St. Joseph Family is committed to excellence on all levels, in terms of governance, staffing, and policies.  St. Joseph Family Board Members regularly meet with funding partners to develop strategies for growth and development.
