Despite the enormous challenges and the need for much more work to be done, Canadian Feed The Children and our generous donors have made a major difference in the lives of the most vulnerable in Haiti.

Hungry For Change
Celestina's Road to Recovery

This past November, Canadian Feed The Children's Program Manager caught up with the healthy 12-year-old back at home in Karpani. Read about Celestina's courageous journey here.
