About
Our Name
"Avni" is the Haitian Creole word for "Future".
​​
At Avni of Haiti it is our desire to help each and every one of the children in our orphanage to grow up to be productive adults. Who will be able to thrive and give back to their communities.
​
Avni of Haiti is lead by Tom and Yvette Kinman. Tom and Yvette have recently partnered with Sue Witt. Miss Sue (as she is known in Haiti) has been running her own orphanage in Gressier for approximately the past 10 years. There are 31 boys and girls living at the children's home.
Together, with your help, we can encourage, engage, and equip our children to have a sustainable future.
Our Mission
We will meet the needs of all children, by providing Christian love, education and guidance, so they will have a sustainable future.
Our Vision
All children have value and should not live without the basic necessities in life, regardless of their circumstances, and one day be self-sustaining and productive members of their society.
