Brian Moynihan, an early THP board chair, supporter for nearly thirty years, and brother of THP President Emeritus Deacon Patrick Moynihan, has partnered with Pope Francis to work together to create a more inclusive capitalism.
Brian, who is the CEO of Bank of America, is joined by Salesforce.com’s Marc Benioff and other prominent business leaders in announcing the Council for Inclusive Capitalism with the Vatican, which describes itself as a movement to build a more inclusive, sustainable and trusted economic system that addresses the needs of our people and the planet.
“Inclusive Capitalism addresses society’s most important priorities such as driving prosperity, equality and economic opportunity for everyone,” Brian said in a statement. “It is critical that we align the capital, creativity and innovation from the private sector to solve for these pressing global challenges.”
We are grateful to Brian and to all our supporters who are creating durable economic, social and environmental progress in Haiti through education, and we applaud this most recent effort with Pope Francis to make the world a better place by ensuring we have an economic system that, as the Pope describes it, “leaves no one behind, that discards none of our brothers and sisters.”
The idea of putting others first is, of course, what The Haitian Project and Louverture Cleary School are all about. (Make sure you don’t miss the picture below!)

The Haitian Project through its support of Louverture Cleary Schools, a national network of tuition-free, Catholic, co-educational secondary boarding schools in Haiti, provides for the education of academically-talented and motivated students from Haitian families who cannot afford the cost of their children’s education in order to maximize their potential and enable them to work toward building a Haiti where justice and peace thrive.
