A Note from Josette








Bonjou,
What a summer! The Lambi Fund of Haiti has been busy as ever working throughout Haiti's countryside visiting partner organizations and providing on-site training.
Our newest projects are in the Northwest. The Lambi Fund team is working with a group of fisher folk to upgrade their fishing equipment with new nets and a boat. They are excited that they will be able to fish more productively and improve their livelihoods.
Lambi Fund staff also led an effective training session with a large women’s group in the Northwest. They learned about water purification, sanitation and rainwater cistern management. Now, this community is looking forward to clean, potable water on a reliable basis.
Seeing these projects become a reality is a true pleasure, as is watching enthusiastic families working to transform their communities.
Enjoy the rest of your summer, as we will be busy working with locals to reforest the land and prepare for the upcoming hurricane season!
All my best,
Josette Perard
Haiti Director
