Our work in Haiti
Since the early 2000s, Canadian Feed The Children has helped children overcome the many challenges they face in Haiti. Through the years, the struggles of poverty have been exacerbated by natural catastrophes and Canadian Feed The Children has worked closely with the communities we serve, our donors and partners, as well as the Canadian International Development Agency, to help families rebuild and regain the stability they need to create opportunities for their children.
