Be Like Brit Foundation is a nonprofit organization based in Worcester, Massachusetts. It focuses on Haiti, aiming to establish a safe, nurturing, and sustainable orphanage in Grand Goâve so children can grow, learn, and thrive. The foundation was established to carry forward the legacy of Britney Gengel, a Rutland native whose death after a trip to Haiti in 2010 inspired the effort to help Haitian orphans. Positioned within the philanthropic sector, the organization pursues durable support for Haitian children by creating an institutional home rather than short-term relief. Its stated mission is to serve the children of Haiti, with a vision to raise the next generation of leaders in the country. The operation is described as a small nonprofit, coordinating its activities to sustain the orphanage project in Haiti.
