Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Programs described in its return (1)
- $13,033 spent. In 2024, Erzule Paul Foundation successfully launched the pilot phase of its Healing in Our Language mental health initiative, providing culturally tailored support to 50 Haitian Creole-speaking individuals in Miami-Dade County. We completed 75% of the objectives outlined in our project plan, including translating 12-step wellness literature, training peer facilitators, and hosting community-based support groups and wellness workshops. In addition, we secured over $28,000 in funding from donors including Universal Music Group, The Miami Foundation, Wawa, GoFundMe.org, and TD Charitable Foundation, along with in-kind support from Winn-Dixie, Publix, and Target. These resources allowed us to distribute food, hygiene items, and gift cards to families in crisis, host outreach events, and begin building a sustainable, trauma-informed care model for underserved Haitian communities.
