Food Distribution in Nan Gaya

There is a Creole proverb that says, “Hunger makes the dog climb the coconut tree.” It means, “when someone is hungry, they will do anything for food”…

This area is called Nan Gaya. It is a village not far from us. The people there have a tough life, along with many other Haitians. The women buy items and resell them in the markets. They do not come home until late, late after dark.

Haiti is full of gangs now. They block the roads, rob the poor, and do things that we cannot mention here in this report. So every box of food is like gold!

Our Feeding Programs are very organized. The person in charge of each village passes out tickets to mothers only before the food comes. This is because men can get in the line and push pregnant women or “butt in front of them.” Women cook the food so they should get the tickets! This food is donated from our friends at Feed My Starving Children. We have been partnering together for many years. Our friends and donors sponsor this food to come from FMSC all the way to Miami, put the container on a boat, and send it to Haiti. Then it arrives in “Haiti Customs” (where all the action begins!). It is tough to get each container safely from the dock in Port au Prince, through gang territories, and all the way to us! God has been so good to us!

We want to thank Feed My Starving Children and all our Love a Child partners for your support and for your prayer!

Thank you,
Bobby and Sherry
