Summary
Lambi fund will first help members of peasant groups get food and essentials for their families and to re-establish their lives, but will also be working toward the country's long term development.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
Lambi Fund is not a first responder, but a second responder. Meaning we will be there long after the relief service providers leave working to REBUILD Haiti. Our first step will be to help members of peasant groups get food and essentials for their families to re-establish their lives.
How will this project solve this problem?
Deliver food and essentials; Replace staff belongings; Recapitalize micro–credit funds run by peasant organizations; Rebuild grain mills, sugar cane and other economic development enterprises; Repair rainwater cisterns; and replenish livestock.
Potential Long Term Impact
Provide not only immediate assistance in areas such as food and shelter, but also help rebuild the lives of citizens in the long run.
Project Message
We're not first-responders like the Red Cross. We're not aid people. We're second-responders. We help people rebuild. And there's going to be plenty of that.
