Second Chance Global

SECOND CHANCE GLOBAL, INC.(SCG) IS COMMITTED TO MAXIMIZING THE DEVELOPMENT OF EACH PERSON TO IMPACT THE WORLD FOR CHRIST BY RELENTLESSLY PURSUING EMPOWERMENT TO BREAK GENERATIONAL POVERTY. SCG HAS TWO PRIMARY PROGRAMS TO ACCOMPLISH ITS MISSION: (CONT - SEE SCH O)

SECOND CHANCE GLOBAL, INC.(SCG) IS ACTIVELY PURSUING ITS MISSION IN THE COUNTRY OF HAITI THROUGH CHILD SPONSORSHIP, FAMILY EMPOWERMENT, MEDICAL OUTREACH, AND OTHER MISSION-CRITICAL ACTIVITIES. SCG'S CHILD SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM SUPPORTS THREE HAITIAN CHILDREN'S HOMES BY PROVIDING FOOD TO SUSTAIN TWO FULL, HOT MEALS A DAY, CLEAN DRINKING WATER, TOILETRIES, FACILITY CLEANING SUPPLIES, SCHOOL TUITION, SCHOOL SUPPLIES, SCHOOL UNIFORMS, MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS, AND GENERAL BUILDING REPAIR PROJECTS. SCG'S MEDICAL OUTREACH PROGRAM WAS IMPLEMENTED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE SUMMER OF 2018 IN HAITI. WE WANT TO RESTORE AND PROVIDE HOPE FOR THOSE WHO FEEL AND LIVE IN BROKENNESS. SCG IS WORKING TIRELESSLY TO IMPLEMENT MEDICALLY-BASED PROGRAMS THAT WOULD PROVIDE HEALTHCARE FOR THE POOREST OF THE POOR. AT THE SECOND CHANCE REDEMPTION RETREAT, WE PLAN TO SERVE THE COUNTRY'S MOST DISADVANTAGED THROUGH A CLINIC THAT COULD INCLUDE EMERGENCY MEDICAL, VISION, AND DENTAL CLINIC. SCG GAINED FULL OWNERSHIP OF A PROPERTY IN HAITI'S PIERRE PAYEN AREA IN 2019. THE PROCESS OF SECURING THE PROPERTY TOOK OVER TWO YEARS TO COMPLETE. FOLLOWING THE PURCHASE OF THIS PROPERTY, SCG HAS MOVED INTO THE NEXT PHASE OF THE PROJECT, WHICH IS TO DEVELOP THE PROPERTY FOR USE. SCG PLANS TO USE THE REDEMPTION RETREAT AS THE HOME BASE FOR A YOUNG ADULT EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM. IN 2021, CONSTRUCTION WAS BEGUN ON BUILDINGS NEEDED TO CARRY OUT THE PROGRAM'S NEEDS. SCG'S FAMILY EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM CURRENTLY SUPPORTS FIVE SPECIFIC FAMILIES. IN HAITI, THE MAJORITY OF CHILDREN IN CHILDREN'S HOMES TODAY ARE POVERTY ORPHANS. POVERTY ORPHANS ARE CHILDREN WHO HAVE LIVING PARENTS OR FAMILY MEMBERS, BUT THEY ARE ORPHANED DUE TO THEIR FAMILY LIVING IN EXTREME POVERTY. PARENTS OR GUARDIANS IN HAITI WILL TAKE THEIR CHILDREN TO ORPHANAGES OR ABANDON THEM IN A COMMUNITY CLOSE TO AN ORPHANAGE BELIEVING THAT THE CHILD WILL LIVE A BETTER LIFE. WE WANT TO CHANGE THAT NARRATIVE AND BREAK THE CYCLE THROUGH IDENTIFYING PROSPECTIVE FAMILIES. THROUGH THIS PROCESS, WE WORK ALONGSIDE LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS AND SOCIAL WORKERS TO DETERMINE THE STATE OF THE HOME. IF THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY ABUSE AFTER MULTIPLE VISITS AND INVESTIGATIONS, AND THE CHILD WAS TRULY GIVEN UP DUE TO FINANCIAL MEANS, THEN WE WILL MOVE FORWARD IN THE PROCESS. WE ASSESS THE WAYS THE PROSPECTIVE FAMILY IS MOST VULNERABLE AND ALSO WHAT STRENGTHS THEY POSSESS. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THERE IS A FAMILY THAT IS AT RISK FOR HOMELESSNESS OR NOT SAFE DUE TO LACK OF SECURE SHELTER, WE RECOGNIZE THAT WE CAN EMPLOY THE FATHER OF ANOTHER FAMILY (WHOM WE SUPPORT AND NEED TO HELP FIND WORK) TO BUILD THEIR HOME SO THAT BOTH FAMILIES ARE GIVEN OPPORTUNITIES OR MET NEEDS. WE ALSO EXPLORE EMPOWERMENT OPPORTUNITIES. FOR EXAMPLE, THE SAME FAMILY MENTIONED (WHO NEEDED NEW SHELTER) IS LIVING IN A REMOTE VILLAGE WITH MORE CHILDREN IN THE HOME THAN ADULTS. THESE ADULTS DO NOT HAVE CHILDCARE, SO THEY NEED A WORK OPPORTUNITY THAT ALLOWS THEM TO STAY HOME. BREEDING LIVESTOCK TO SELL TO VILLAGERS IN THEIR AREA IS AN OPTION. WE TRAIN THE FAMILY TOWARDS A PARTICULAR JOB. IN 2019, WE STARTED A CAMPAIGN CALLED THE PURPOSE PROJECT, WHERE FAMILIES WITHIN OUR PROGRAM COULD MAKE JEWELRY AND OTHER HAND-CRAFTED ITEMS TO EARN MONEY TO SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES. THE GOAL IS TO HELP THESE FAMILIES BECOME LESS DEPENDENT ON OUTSIDE AID AND BE SELF-SUFFICIENT OFF ON THEIR OWN SKILLS AND TRADE. WE ALSO EDUCATE THEM ON HOW TO BREED ANIMALS AND HOW TO SAVE A LITTLE AND MAKE A LITTLE. THIS IS ALSO PART OF THE PROCESS WHERE WE HELP WITH THE EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL STATE OF POVERTY THE BEST THAT WE CAN. WE KNOW THIS IS MORE THAN A PROCESS OR PROGRAM BUT ALSO A STATE OF MIND. ONCE WE START THE FOURTH STEP, WE BEGIN SUPPLYING THE FAMILY WITH SUPPLEMENTAL AID. MONTHLY, THE FAMILY WILL RECEIVE 2 MEALS PER DAY, BASIC NECESSITIES SUCH AS BATHING SOAP, LAUNDRY DETERGENT, AND DISH SOAP. WE WILL ALSO HELP WITH SCHOOL WHEN POSSIBLE. OUR HOPE IS THAT WITHIN 6 MONTHS TO A YEAR THE FAMILY WILL BE RESTORED IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. THEY WILL BE EMPOWERED THROUGH WORK, HEALTHIER THROUGH FOOD AID, AND TOGETHER AS A FAMILY! THROUGH EVERY POINT PRIOR TO THIS POINT, WE WILL HAVE BEHAVED AND SPOKEN IN A WAY THAT REFLECTS THE LIGHT OF JESUS. AT THIS POINT, WE DISCIPLE THEM ON THE LOVE OF JESUS. DUE TO COVID-19 IN 2020 AND AN INCREASE IN VIOLENCE FROM GANG ACTIVITY SHORTLY AFTER, THE ADVANCEMENT OF OUR PLANS FOR THIS PROGRAM WAS SEVERELY AFFECTED, AND MANY OPERATIONAL PLANS WERE PLACED ON HOLD. WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FACILITATE ANY MISSION TRIPS TO HAITI SINCE 2022.
