In the aftermath of four tropical storms in 2008 and the devastating 2010 earthquake, the people of Haiti have experienced greater poverty and starvation. By implementing reforestation programs and teaching sustainable agriculture however, many Haitians are becoming self-reliant.

HAITI REBORN is partnered with the Montfortan Brothers and a local church to support a reforestation program based at the Jean Marie Vincent Education Center in Grepin (outside of Gros Morne, Haiti).  The program houses a tree nursery, a garden, an education and retreat center, and a model forest. Seedlings are planted in the model forest at Tet Mon and are also distributed throughout the community. Education programs hosted at the center routinely bring 100 -150 local farmers and agricultural experts together for courses in farming techniques and forestry.

The people of Haiti and the nation's ecology need immediate help to recover from tropical storms and the 2010 earthquake.
