Founded in 1997 by Tom Braak, Faith in Action International is a Christian, grass-roots organization whose goal is to tangibly express God's love to people living in impoverished communities.

Our present focus is on helping families living in the mountains surrounding Haiti's Artibonite Valley. By working with local farmers, Faith in Action International helps the people organize themselves to identify, prioritize, and solve local problems. We also provide solutions others have successfully used elsewhere, encouraging the people to test the ideas to see if they might be adapted to work locally.

In all cases, it is our intent to ensure that solutions are sustainable.

We encourage you to learn more about us through this site and to get involved through volunteering, trips to Haiti, donating or subscribing to our newsletter.
