Jou Nouvo provides access to education for families in Bon Repos, Haiti. Through education, we enrich the community and break the cycle of poverty.
Haitian native Kerline Tofuri founded Jou Nouvo in 2008 to respond to the needs and aspirations of the poor in Bon Repos, Haiti, where she grew up. Soon thereafter, Jou Nouvo, a 501(c)3 organization, began its first programs: Adult Literacy, Basic Health Instruction, Small Business Loans, and Child Sponsorships.
More than a decade later, Jou Nouvo proudly continues these programs in Bon Repos and has added a university scholarship program as well. We have even provided assistance for natural disasters on the island. Through every program, we help individuals and families create a new cycle of hope.
