Sixty-six percent of Haitians
live on less than $1 dollar a day and 47 percent are undernourished,
according to the U.N. World Food Program. The country's unemployment
rate is over 60 percent. The dramatic rise in food costs,
especially key staples such as rice, has been brought on by
droughts in key agricultural countries, more demand in wealthier
Asia, and biofuels production. In Haiti children are reverting
to eating mud cakes

Within this contex
United Caribbean Trust is pleased to be working in association
with Restoration Ministries Haiti (RMH) on the Haiti
Child Sponsorship Programme introduced throught the

What will
your US $30 per month achieve?
The money will be divided
into 3 modules
- The first 1/3rd of the fees will go to the
school to cover school fees, uniform, shoes, books and pencils
etc. Complying with one of the Millennium
Development Goals - To ensure that all boys and girls
complete a full course of primary schooling
- The next 1/3rd will be invested into a Family
Empowerment Programme enabling the family to
purchase livestock such as goats, chickens, pigs or a cow.
UCT is committed
to investing US $30 to purchase a
BioSand filter from Clean Water for Haiti (CWH)
for every family within our Child Sponsorship Program.
- The last 1/3rd will go towards funding the
After School
Club which is being established at the local
Restoration Ministries Haiti church in Morne Oge and in the
Salvation Army church hall in Jacmel. This will include an
afternoon feeding programme and a child educational, character
building evangelical teaching programme.
