"Haiti has less than 2 percent tree cover and imports roughly 70 percent of its food." These statistics were from before the 2010 earthquake that devastated Haiti. Yéle Haiti is a grassroots, non-political charitable organization providing aid and assistance to those in the greatest need since 2005.
They are acheiving some great things for this poor nation:
- working with farmers to plant trees and help acheive better yields
- providing food for orphans
- training 76 at risk youth in classical music
- providing tents and water throughout Port-au-Prince
To find out more about this organization, donate or volunteer please check out YÉLE HAITI
