EBAC Christian Academy • Cap-Haitien, Haiti
An orphanage in Haiti needs your help.
The crisis forced Alice and Kathy home after 48 years. The children are still there.
What EBAC Provides
Since 1977, EBAC Christian Academy and Orphanage has given children in Haiti a home, a family, and a future rooted in Christian faith. Here is what your gift supports.
Food
Two meals a day for every child. Hearts for the Hungry provides a daily feeding program on campus.
Housing
A safe home with dormitories on a protected campus in Morne Rouge, Cap-Haitien.
Education
Full English-language ACE Christian curriculum: English, math, Bible, history, and computers.
Clothing
Shoes, uniforms, and everyday wear. Children rely on missionaries for clothing and basic items.
“In the United States, I feel like kids grow up too fast, but in Haiti you can see a girl who’s 12 years old still playing with a doll. Boys playing with marbles at 12, 13 years old. Kids are kids, and they have fun being kids.”
Kathy Gouker
The People Behind EBAC
Founded by Pastor Cebien Alexis and run for 48 years by missionaries Alice Wise and Kathy Gouker, EBAC is a story of faith, sacrifice, and lives transformed.
Alice & Kathy
The Missionaries
Two women from Pennsylvania who gave 48 years to the children of EBAC. The crisis forced them home, but they continue to fight from the U.S.
Pastor Cebien
The Founder
Started with $12 and 11 believers. Built 200+ churches, 85 schools, and a university. Still sees 120+ patients a day at his clinic.
EBAC Graduates
Proof It Works
Six graduates stayed in Haiti and built IDADEE: a hospital, schools, a farm, and 200+ jobs. The education they received changed everything.
Haiti Is In Crisis.
Haiti is experiencing what the WFP calls the most underfunded crisis in the world. Food is scarce and very expensive. Gangs have forced thousands from their homes. As Alice and Kathy wrote: “Our friends put their lives in their own hands every time they leave the yard to go buy food.”
