Contribute to Long-Term Rebuilding in Haiti

Accomplishing the work of sustaining long term rebuilding is an esential step toward sustainable development.  Often difficult for small organization but do-able with partners looking into the future of communities beyond individual and personal activities.  To accomplish this important step, the methodology of the Lambi Fund requires that investment is made into the community through established local organization whose mission is to grow communities and meet community needs working together.  for example, establishing a mill that allows all farmers to have guarantee of production and organizing community membership to support the operationn of the meal is a win win for the community and the organization.

This year Lambi Fund is completing 21 projects that we have taken from disaster relief, recovery and now completing rehabilitationn post the devastating Hurricane Mathew in 2016.  Today we have completed the evaluation of the [rojects.  They have recovered 100 % production level lost in 2016, assuring that the community dwellers are able to produce, transform grains, stok grains and supply the local market.  These were capacity lost and regained in 2019.

The evaluation of these projects is an essential tool for growth.  Using a participatory process, the Lambi Fund has evaluated the projects to assure lessons learned are shared; The management of  organizations improved based on the learning experience and the improvement procedures are incorporated in the practices of the farmers involved.

. The Lambi Fund supported 9 credit fund with an average of 50 persons each starting or restarting their small business in a country where unemployment is over 50%.  This is their only chance of getting a loan at 2% interest to create self-employment.  Community members started 320,000 seedlings to improve reforestation.  We make a step forward everyday in a country where beating the odds can be challenging. 

Thank you for making it happen!
