Lambi Fund of Haiti sponsors sustainable agriculture and reforestation projects in Haiti 
Members of KADN will be self-sustaining with the new fish farm they built with Lambi Fund's help. It will provide much needed protein and a new product to sell at market. 
You can tell malnourished, protein deprived children by their red-tinged hair. 
Members of a peasant group mill corn into corn meal, which brings a better price at market. Women don't have to walk long distances to grind their corn. 
Pigs are like bank accounts in Haiti. Members of ADZK, a grassroots organization, asked Lambi to fund a pig breeding project. 
They are members of ADZK and will be able to feed their children and send them to school thanks to the pig. 
This baby has a better chance for survival now that her parents own pigs. 
These kids are able to go to school thanks to the extra income their parents have from pigs. 
Anaise is the first ADZK woman President, thanks to gender equity training and women's leadership training from the Lambi Fund. 
Members of a grassroots organization, Konbit 2004 in Chato Haiti, wanted to address deforestation in the area. This is one of five tree nurseries they built. They have planted 50,000 trees and plan to plant 50,000 more next year.

Members plant seedlings in plastic sacks. Later when they reach a height of two feet, they will transplant them in deforested areas. 
Konbit 2004 members also wanted a solution for the lack of potable drinking water. This is one of five cisterns they built. They plan to build five more next year. 
Women are glad to have a nearby water source so they do not have to carry water long distances. 
Parents can spend money to send children to school instead of taking sick children to the clinic. 
These girls can attend school instead of having to carry water long distances. 
The President of Konbit 2004 (tall man in white shirt) was elected Mayor of Chato. In an example of how Lambi Fund leadership training is going to change Haiti, he pledges to focus on reforestation as Mayor. 
Konbit 2004 elected a woman to be the organization's treasurer. As a direct result of Lambi Fund's Leadership training for women, female members of peasant organizations are vying for positions of leadership.
