Our story…

This past year, farmers in our partner community of Plain Matin had a good crop of yams, but they could not get them to their intended market in Port-au-Prince because gangs controlled the roads into the city. They shared this problem with Jeanne, Haiti H2O’s Community Development Director in Les Cayes. Haiti H2O purchased the yams from the farmers, as well as rice, beans and cooking oil, to distribute to families in need in all four of our partner communities. These food kits were delivered to 250 families. Jeanne, reported families within the communities were "very glad to have some food to feed their families". The Run for Hope invests in the hopes of Haitians to have the ability to feed their families. The funds raised will allow Haiti H2O to continue to support this kind of immediate food assistance as well as long-term projects like a corn grinder business, agroecology training and bread oven cooperatives

Our approach is to take time to listen to local leaders and invest in their ideas, empowering them to make positive change. We currently work with four rural communities in areas such as education, health and sanitation, business initiatives, home construction, and livestock cooperative. H2O invests the money raised to impact the lives of people in rural Haiti! Learn more about the work https://haitih2o.org/
