The cost to volunteer is $900 for a 10 day trip inclusive of accommodation, food, transport and logistics. The fee does not include flight arrangements. Volunteers are responsible for making their own travel bookings.
Our organization functions entirely as a volunteer, not-for-profit organization, and as such, we are all responsible for covering the costs of our initiatives. Additional team costs can include: medical equipment and supplies, packing supplies, stationary, printing and postage. As much as possible, we seek to obtain donated equipment and supplies.

Research Projects and Interns
Haiti Village Health also welcomes individuals to volunteer for longer periods of time in order to conduct special projects or research. Please contact HVH for further information at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
We also accept interns for a minimum of 3 months and maximum of 12 months. As an intern, you will be responsible for working with and supporting our Haitian staff, assisting in program management and oversight, networking with other Cap Haitian NGOs, assisting with volunteer teams and acting as a liaison for HVH’s team of Directors working overseas. It is a role that requires flexibility, as job responsibilities will vary depending on the changing needs of the organizations.
As an intern, you will not pay a fee and will be provided accommodation and meals, based at the Santo Pou Yo Guesthouse in Bod Me Limbe. You will also be provided with a Blackberry for communication. Prior medical experience and French are both assets, but not requirements. Individual’s interested in interning will need to interview before being accepted as an intern.
