Haiti : Animal Health Care Training Project
|
Amurtel is developing a new program in the NW Artibonite area of Haiti to address the needs of rural animals. Currently Haiti does not have a veterinary college and there is a pressing need for trained animal care providers in rural areas. Goats, donkeys, cattle, horses, pigs and chickens are an integral part of the rural Haitian community and suffer from diseases that are consistent with the arid, desert landscape of this part of Haiti. |

The AMURTEL supported Sunrise School in Port-au-Prince opened its arms to take in more children and their families, providing them with food and other necessary supplies to survive these hard times. |

AMURT's and AMURTEL’s Food For All program has been assisting such people with emergency food needs for the past fifteen years. 1n 2001, especially after September 11, the demand for our services increased dramatically. The Hotel and Restaurant Employees Union, for example, were struggling to support 4,000 recently unemployed members. We provided food for fifty union families every week until they found other resources. |
