About Fonkoze

Who We Are

Fonkoze (The Foundation) was created 28 years ago to bring financial inclusion and development services to Haiti's poor - providing them a viable way to lift themselves out of poverty. Today, we are a family of 3 organizations - Fonkoze Financial Services (SFF), Fonkoze Foundation and Fonkoze USA - that work together to empower Haitians, primarily women, to lift their families out of poverty.

What We Do

Fonkoze knows that poverty's many challenges are interconnected, and the solutions are as well. Our financial services and accompanying development programs are built to address the various levels and complexities of poverty in order to help our clients break the inter-generational cycle of poverty.

Our Impact

Everything we do - from our financial services, business skills training and literacy classes to our ultra-poverty program (CLM) and innovative health program (Boutik Sante) - is driven by one core purpose: to provide the poor in Haiti ACCESS to the tools, resources and support needed to lift themselves out of poverty.

Fonkoze's programs and services have been proven effective in their approach to alleviating poverty - long term - and are all designed to meet individuals wherever they are in their journey out of poverty. See our impact by the numbers here.
