Our Mission

Maison d'Haiti, meaning "House of Haiti" in French, is the brand of Haiti Projects' Artisanat Cooperative, and a proud member of the Fair Trade Federation.

Our Artisanat Cooperative was founded in 1994 when founder Sarah Hackett, impressed by the embroidery skills of the local women in Fond des Blancs, Haiti found that they lacked the simplest of supplies to hone their skills. By providing these women needles and thread, Sarah realized that she could provide not only tools for embroidery but also the means to make a living in an area where employment is scarce.

25+ years later the Artisanat Cooperative employs nearly 100 women at Fair Trade wages. We make heirloom quality, handcrafted embroidered and knit products under our own brand - Maison d'Haiti - and are available for private label work. 

Proceeds from the sale of these items goes directly toward supporting the Haiti Projects artisans, providing them with life-changing income.
