Description

Rural communities in Haiti face persistent agriculture and livestock production challenges, worsened by environmental vulnerabilities and socio-economic instability. As a result, almost half of Haitians are food insecure. Yet they also have a long history of organizing to lift up their communities, which represents an opportunity for the philanthropic sector. Within this context, the Haitian diaspora, which channels an estimated $4.5 billion in remittances to Haiti annually, has a huge role to play in advancing equitable development in Haiti. The IAF supports diaspora communities, such as Haitians living abroad, to contribute to grassroots development efforts in their countries of origin. IAF grantee Ayiti Community Trust (ACT) mobilizes Haitians, the Haitian diaspora, and other committed donors to invest in Haitian-led solutions.

ACT is matching the IAF?s investment in funds to regrant to organizations at $2 for every $1 from the IAF.
