Haitian Food Security and Self-reliance is Our Mission

Our mission: To improve the standard of living and well-being of Haitians everywhere through the production of knowledge and wealth.

Our Vision: A Haiti that is food secure and self-reliant by 2050.

Haitian Food Security

Our food security initiative consists of chicken distribution and community gardening practices in Haiti that can provide a sustainable, diverse, and culturally significant solution to the pressing issue of food insecurity.

Chicken Distribution: Pairs of chickens are distributed to Haitian families for them to reproduce for meat, eggs, and sale. 

Chicken Breeding: A commercial chicken farm is funded to breed chickens for local distribution in Haiti.

Egg Production: Applied research of effective egg incubation provides a path for individuals in Haiti to produce their own eggs at scale instead of importing.

Community Gardens: Large areas of land are irrigated where hundreds of plots are allocated to families in one community for planting and growing crops.

Backyard Gardening: We encourage the planting of crops in individual backyards, as well as school yards in Haiti.

Haitian Self-reliance

The goal of our self-reliance initiative is to address poverty among the Haitian people by empowering them with knowledge and skills in the areas of employment, education, personal finances, home economics, and small business.

Chicken Breeding: Haitians are taught how to multiply a pair of chickens into a sustainable source of food and wealth.

Agriculture: Haitians are taught how to effectively grow crops to become a sustainable source of food and wealth.

Personal Budgeting: Haitians are taught responsible budgeting practices to be able to do more with the money that they have.

Micro-entrepreneurship: Haitians are taught good business practices to turn the skills that they have into successful enterprises.

Home Economics: Haitians are taught to manage their homes successfully by properly saving and investing money.
