The Friends of Hôpital Albert Schweitzer (HAS) Haiti operates an online art gallery geared towards the selling of Haitian art to benefit the struggling country. In the past they have given help by displaying Haitian art at Pennsylvania State, had benefits to raise funds for Haitian causes, and have showed and sold works by Haitian artist, especially of the Artibonite valley. Since they're a hospital, the focus of the donations is usually geared towards health services, but they also assist people in developing their environment and finances.
