What is Beyond Borders?
Beyond Borders is a group of people who join together out of devotion to Christ to work for justice and peace by fostering transformative learning within and across cultural and economic borders. We promote non-traditional education in Haiti by giving grants to Haitian organizations for community and church based literacy programs. At present, Beyond Borders provides financial and technical support for more than 70 literacy centers serving approximately 1,700 children and 500 adults. We promote non-traditional education among people from English speaking industrialized countries by placing volunteers who are seeking to learn from, and live out the gospel in Haitian communities, and by hosting short visits of small groups of people who want to learn more about how to confront human misery and hunger in the world. All of our work is done in complete cooperation with our Haitian sister organization, Limyè Lavi (Light for Life).
