DescriptionGrantsExpenses
This has been an especially difficult year for Haitians. There was a gas shortage, runaway inflation, a food shortage, significant curtailment of the national power grid, riots that closed most institutions for months and a long drought. Our rural neighbors were suffering. We chose to help by providing a food distribution that fed 160 families of five for a week. It was over 8000 meals. The food was bought in Haitian stores and the packets were assembled by Haitian volunteers. Then the actual distribution was through four local Haitian churches. In the middle of so much hopelessness and wondering how they would be able to eat, we were able to help a community feel normal for a week.$0$4,900
We quadrupled the number of hens to over 20 and added three roosters. We built new coops, pens, and a brooder box, as well as obtaining an incubator. Our goal is to begin breeding the chickens and having 20 chicks at least 10 times per year. We starting producing honey from two large hives we added this year. We built a couple rabbit hutches in anticipation of breeding rabbits. They are more affordable for our neighbors than other meat animals and have more meat per pound than goats and chickens. Within three years we hope to be producing 200 per year. We are working to decrease our feed costs. We have scythes and built a manual baler for hay. We have a manual grinder made of stone. We are growing corn and sunflowers and buying other feed ingredients in bulk and grinding our goat supplement feed, chicken feed, and rabbit feed. We are working with a ministry partner to determine the best hay to grow in Haiti for goats. There are five test plots with different varieties.$0$4,560
North Carolina State University wanted to help solve the problem of malnutrition of rural children. Most families eat meat only once a week. The Ag Department was working with goats with roots in the Middle East. They are very hardy and used to hot temperatures. They also are 30-50% larger than Creole goats. They began bringing in semen to artificially inseminate the Creole goats. The offspring are huge since 90% of the genetics are passed down through the buck. We are one of two organizations that the University is partnering with in Haiti. We bought one buck and three does. Currently our Billy has sired four kids. We are working to grow a herd of 25 and also using our bucks to impregnate our neighbor's goats to help them begin to have larger more desirable goats for market. We had the expense of the goats, building and outfitting their habitat.$0$3,500
Continuing the development of our agriculture programs is essential to fulfilling our goal of tripling the income of 100 small acreage farmers. This year we planted our Spring crop at least 6 weeks earlier than our neighbors. Our irrigation techniques made this possible. We had a beautiful and bountiful crop. All our work is done by young people that did not grow up on farms or even in farming areas. We provided or facilitated training for them. We are surrounded by families that have farmed for generations. As our crop of beets came in, the neighbors would come an help us make it an even better crop. It is exciting to see this mix of new techniques being assisted by old ways. This type of synergy is something that we are very excited and proud about. Our methods feel very Haitian to the community because they are having input into the processes. We scheduled our first community Drip Irrigation seminar, but it was cancelled due to the riots.$0$2,000
