Since the United States launched a new immigration process for Haitians to travel to America with help from a financial supporter, scores of people seeking sponsors have contacted The Haitian Times about finding a sponsor to take them in. The Haitian Times does not pair people with sponsors, but rather routes them organizations that do – such as Welcome.US and The Haitian Bridge Alliance. 

These financial supporter seekers come from all walks of life, locations in Haiti and other countries. Each one is living through unique circumstances. All have in common a strong desire to reach America. 

Uh oh, it looks like you’ve hit a paywall! But don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. Here are a few ways you can access this story.
