Miquette McMahon shares journey from Haitian poverty to founding Teach Haiti
Miquette McMahon, founder of the nonprofit organization Teach Haiti, recently shared her personal testimony regarding her upbringing in Haiti. She describes a childhood marked by extreme financial hardship, noting that her family struggled to afford basic school fees. McMahon recounts the profound loss of a sibling to malnutrition and the difficult decision her family made to place two of her sisters for adoption.
Despite these early challenges, McMahon credits her faith in God for guiding her path toward purpose and restoration. She explains that her experiences motivated her to establish Teach Haiti, a Christ-centered ministry dedicated to supporting children in her home country. Today, the organization provides education, daily meals, career training, and faith-based instruction to more than 750 students, which McMahon describes as the fulfillment of a divine plan for her life.
