Provide pathways to success for Detroiters in need through programs in learning, health care and housing and by supporting community partners.
Have Faith Haiti Mission Support Trust’s recent giving is defined by a single recurring partner: A Hole in the Roof Foundation, which received the two largest grants on file, including $593,264 in 2024 and $587,000 in 2025 to support the mission of the Have Faith Haiti/Hole in the Roof. That pattern points to a funder built around sustained mission support rather than a broad portfolio of many smaller grants. The trust’s stated summary also ties its work to pathways for Detroiters in need through learning, health care, and housing, while its topic taxonomy adds Haiti-focused programming and faith-based community services. The foundation sits within the wider SAY Detroit ecosystem and appears alongside programs such as Detroit Dream Scholars, the SAY Detroit Family Health Clinic, and Working Homes / Working Families, which together indicate interest in education, medical access, and housing stability. Its public profile also connects it to residents of Haiti and faith-community participants, showing that its grantmaking reflects both Detroit-centered community support and Haiti-related mission work. Across the available records, the trust’s giving is concentrated, purpose-driven, and closely tied to mission continuity.
Education is one clear lane for the trust’s broader ecosystem. Detroit Dream Scholars offers four-year scholarships to young people in Detroit, and the program is supported and funded by SAY Detroit and partners through Radiothon proceeds. Housing is another recurring theme. Working Homes / Working Families refurbishes abandoned homes for working families in Detroit, pairing housing stabilization with neighborhood improvement and family support. A separate housing-related program, the SAY Detroit Family Health Clinic, extends the foundation’s community-health emphasis by serving homeless children and their mothers in Detroit. Faith-based service and disaster-related support also appear in the program structure. A Hole in the Roof Foundation Grants are used to help faith and relief groups pay for repairs, rebuilding infrastructure, and related project costs, with Port-au-Prince specifically named in the program geography. Together, these programs show attention to education, housing, health care, and faith-linked relief work.
The grant-size data show a single observed amount at p25, median, and p75: $593,264. That indicates a very narrow recent distribution, with the available top grants clustered at nearly the same level in consecutive years. The recent grants list also shows continuity across 2024 and 2025, both directed to the same recipient and for the same mission-related purpose. The trust is not an individual-giving vehicle, and it does not make program-related investments. Its structure and program descriptions suggest mission support tied to affiliated community and faith-based work rather than an open, multi-grantee application model.

All recorded grants go to recipients in the United States, and 100% are in Michigan. The grant record places the recipient in Southfield, while the broader program footprint points to Detroit, Metro Detroit, and Southeast Michigan. Specific program locations include Detroit, Michigan for the scholarship, housing, and clinic work, plus Port-au-Prince, Haiti in the faith-and-relief infrastructure program. The geography is therefore local in the U.S. record, with Haiti named in programmatic scope rather than in the country distribution of recent grants.
The trust’s stated focus areas include learning and education, health care, housing and community development, volunteer services, and youth services. Its topic taxonomy also points to Haiti-focused programming and faith-based community services, with support tied to residents of Haiti and church-affiliated populations.
The available grant-size distribution is extremely tight: p25, median, and p75 are all $593,264. The two largest recent grants are $593,264 in 2024 and $587,000 in 2025, both to A Hole in the Roof Foundation for the same mission support purpose.
