Washington, DC – August 19, 2024 – As Haiti continues to face an escalating crisis marked by widespread hunger, gang violence, and crippling poverty, the Haitian Development Network (HDN) is reigniting its pivotal initiative, the Feed Yourself campaign. This program, which has long stood as a beacon of hope for countless Haitians, is being relaunched at a time when the nation is in dire need of support and sustainable solutions.
Haiti, once a prosperous nation, has been plunged into a severe humanitarian crisis, with many of its citizens struggling to secure basic necessities such as food and clean water. The current situation is exacerbated by the ongoing political instability and violence, leaving millions in a state of vulnerability. In response, Haitian Development Network, under the visionary leadership of founder Jacques Jonassaint, is taking bold steps to address these challenges head-on.
The Feed Yourself campaign, which emphasizes self-reliance and sustainable agriculture, aims to empower local communities by providing them with the tools and resources needed to cultivate their own food. Through partnerships with local farmers, NGOs, and international organizations, Haitian Development Network is working tirelessly to ensure that Haitians have access to the resources they need to feed themselves and their families.
“Our mission has always been to uplift and empower the people of Haiti,” said Jacques Jonassaint, founder of Haitian Development Network. “The Feed Yourself campaign is more than just an initiative; it’s a lifeline for those who have been left behind in the wake of this crisis. We are calling on the global community to stand with us and support our efforts to bring hope and sustenance to those in need.”
With the relaunch of the campaign, Haitian Development Network is also appealing to companies, NGOs, and individuals worldwide to join them in making a tangible difference in Haiti. The success of this campaign relies heavily on collective efforts, and Haitian Development Network is committed to fostering collaboration at all levels to ensure its effectiveness.
The need for immediate action is critical. As the situation in Haiti worsens, initiatives like Feed Yourself are essential to alleviating the suffering of millions. Haitian Development Network remains dedicated to its mission and continues to seek innovative solutions to the challenges facing the nation.
