To work alongside community members of Cite Soleil to strengthen Cite Soleil Haiti’s youth through inspiration, empowerment, community and peacemaking.


Sprint to Cite Soleil was founded in 2016 and has evolved to become a well recognized and important program supporting kids in the community of Cite Soleil.  Each week the program gathers 150 boys and girls along with 10 dedicated basketball coaches and 4 cooks to provide structure, develop basketball skills, provide a traditional Haitian meal, and create a safe place for kids to gather with friends.

In six years, we have seen first hand the importance of Sprint to Cite Soleil's role in helping build this deserving community. Haiti is struggling more than ever right now.  In addition to the continued political instability and rising gang violence, 2022 has also witnessed severe famine and Cholera in the region.  Our director and staff have done amazing work to adapt during these difficult times. We are proud to report that Sprint to Cite Soleil is still training and offering the kids weekly meals, continued mentorship and a place to gather as a community as schools remain closed in Cite Soleil. 

The kids, coaches, cooks and director rely on your donations to keep this program running. Thank you in advance for your support!

Gen Espwa! (Have Hope!),
