Our

Mission

Piton Partnership exists to support the under-served communities around Piton, Haiti.

Our Values

  • We strive to empower the people of Piton and Piton West to a higher quality of life through our programs and funding.
  • Following the direction of local leaders, we work within the community,
  • stepping back so Haitians can manage Haitians,  with accountability, and
  • placing the focus on the people of Piton, not us.
  • We aren't trying to "fix" Haiti & we're not interested in creating a small version of the U.S. in Piton.
  • The work we do is a response to the mercy and grace shown to us by Christ Jesus and our Heavenly Father.


Our Motto

When you pray, move your feet. ~ African proverb

Our Team

Administrative Director

Samuel Pamzou is the principal of the Piton Community School, and a leader of the community. Samuel is the reason Piton Partnership is in Piton. His passion for pushing his community forward is contagious and the community rises to any challenge he gives them. He approaches us with a project only after he knows the community is behind it and willing to participate. Without Samuel, our work would stall. We feel so blessed to know him and are grateful for his hard work, perseverance, and sense of humor.
