ACTIVE EMERGENCY

Haiti Emergency Response

Since December 2022, select communities in Haiti have been gripped by a series of challenges, including gang violence, social disturbance, assassination, and kidnapping. This turmoil led families to evacuate, leaving behind their homes and possessions. Many families have fled and remain displaced.

Before this intense conflict, Haiti experienced chronic political instability. In addition, a series of natural disasters has increased cholera cases, spread by contaminated water and putting those weakened by hunger and extreme stress in mortal danger.

The situation for many Haitians is dire. Despite these challenges, FH remains dedicated to serving children and families in Haiti.

CRISIS UPDATES

WELLS NOW PRODUCE CLEAN WATER

All 15 borehole wells targeted for rehabilitation after the cyclone are now fixed and in operation. FH continues distributing water purification tablets to insure families drink clean water.

FOOD, SEED, AND TOOLS DISTRIBUTED

FH provided 1,100 households with food vouchers that allowed families to purchase rice, maize meal, beans, vegetable oil, and salt. Additionally the same households received cabbage and tomato seeds, along with hoes to help replant ruined fields.

EMERGENCY DIAPER DISTRIBUTIONS

Diapers are one of the most expensive items for displaced families to buy. FH helped provide 3,500 households with diapers to keep children dry, clean, and healthy.

FIGHTING OFF FRIGID WINTER WEATHER

Distributions of blankets, jackets, and sweaters kept more than 38,000 people warm and healthy, in the midst of sub-freezing temperatures.

FOOD DISTRIBUTIONS HELP THOUSANDS

Partners in Syria provided emergency food baskets to more than 40,000 quake victims. The number in need soared as quake victims moved in with other families, stretching food supplies and budgets both for the host and displaced families.

AID TO FAMILIES FLEEING GANG VIOLENCE

The Haiti team is in process of supporting 450 displaced households, fleeing gang violence in their hometowns,  with cash-transfer assistance in order for these families to meet basic needs.  So far, 439 families have been reached.
