WHO WE ARE
Brit's Home located in Grand-Goâve, Haiti was built
to honor the memory of Britney Gengel, who died
tragically in the 2010 Haiti earthquake along with
approximately 300,000 others. To honor her life
and to honor her commitment to those less fortunate
among us, weʼve built this home which is now home
to 33 boys and 33 girls, symbolic of the 33 days Brit
was missing.

The Be Like Brit Operations Center, which we call "The
OC" , is located in Worcester, MA. The OC houses our
administrative offices and donation warehouse. We have
dozens of volunteer opportunities for individuals and
groups. We also welcome school groups to become more
involved with our mission and volunteering by becoming a
Be Like Brit Club!
From volunteering your time, to donating towards our
mission, there are so many ways you can get involved with
Be Like Brit. To learn more about how you can help, please

HOW TO GET INVOLVED
Be Like Brit calls those who visit Brit's Home in Haiti
"Britsionarys". Our Britsionary program was created to
provide an opportunity for volunteers to gain a better
understanding of global partnerships and cultures.
Short-term Britsionary groups spend up to a week at Brit's
Home in Haiti, to help with youth and community outreach
projects, immerse themselves in the Haitian culture and of
course see our beautiful 66 kids.
