BGR’s partner in this project, U.S.-based Art Creation Foundation for Children (ACFFC), provides art instruction, tutoring, medical care, daily food and water, and tuition support for children in need in Jacmel, Haiti. Worsening economic and political instability in Haiti are leaving ever greater numbers of children at risk of malnutrition or even of being given up to orphanages by families who cannot afford to feed them.

Our partner in Haiti reports a significant increase in the number of children who are going to school hungry after not having eaten a meal the night before; for many, this feeding program provides their only opportunity to eat each day. When schools are closed due to political instability or other causes, food boxes with enough supplies for the whole family are delivered to the children at home. Without this program, many of the children would spend their days either looking for food or working rather than attending school. This project provides about 36 children in need with at least one nutritious, filling meal per day, six days per week.
