  • When you support Help for Haiti, you help feed Haiti’s poor in the following manner:

    Bulk Food Packing Programs

    Help for Haiti is raising funds to support food packing programs in the United States. Special bulk food is purchased from a supplier expert in packing meals for international shipment to third world countries that contain enough protein and nourishment to sustain a malnourished child.

    We work with expert suppliers and aggregator to recruit volunteers to package specific special rice and protein supplements into hermetically sealed water proof packages weighing about 14 ounces each. These are boxed and aggregated for a container shipment by sea to Haiti.

    Help for Haiti then distributes meals securely to church schools to provide a hot lunch for children. Currently over 500 children have been fed annually. Our goal is to provide 500,000 meals per year.

    Rice and Beans

    Rice and beans are a Caribbean staple and an important part of a Haitian’s diet. Together they are nutritious and high protein. Help for Haiti buys rice and beans in bulk at the local farmer’s market to supplement the school food program. This food is grown on farms in country and contributes to farmers and the local economy. Being an island nation with weak agricultural programs, what we buy at market is not enough. We leverage our supplies in the local market with food container shipments to ensure that we have enough.

    Efficiencies

    We partner with other in-country non-profits to provide secure transport for food, warehousing, and medical care. By working together with others, we can be efficient and effective. Everyone wins, especially the children.
