Change The Stars helping children and families in Haiti

Host Jeremy C. Park talks with Jeff Ponchillia, Founder of Change The Stars, who highlights the nonprofit organization’s mission and efforts to empower the children of Haiti to rewrite their destinies by providing housing, medical care, education, and a pathway out of poverty.

During the interview, Jeff shares how a trip to Haiti in 2013 forever changed his life’s purpose. After witnessing firsthand the dire conditions of the schools and orphanages there, he knew something had to be done, so he and his family began supporting multiple primary schools, an orphanage, and a children’s hospital. The nonprofit was established in 2017 to bring positive change by establishing an orphanage, implementing a scholarship program, supporting local schools, and aiding the children’s hospital.
