How One Haitian Mother Rebuilt Her Life After Gang Violence—with Courage, Determination, Enterprise and a Small Loan
A local organization has been working with communities in Haiti for 25 years, providing support and resources to those in need. Through this work, many individuals have been able to rebuild their lives after facing hardship. One such individual is a Haitian mother who fled her hometown after it was taken over by armed gangs. She arrived in a remote mountain community with no possessions, but was able to start anew with the help of a women-focused microcredit program. Further details about this program and the mother's story are available from the Raising Haiti Foundation, which has been working in the area for over two decades.
