In a significant humanitarian effort, the Economic and Social Assistance Fund (FAES) distributed 27,000 hot meals on November 3rd to displaced individuals in Port-au-Prince and Pétion-ville, Haiti. This initiative, part of FAES’s Mobile Canteen program, underscores the organization’s dedication to alleviating the plight of vulnerable families amidst the ongoing humanitarian crisis. The meals were distributed across multiple strategic locations, including Lycée Marie Jeanne in Bois-Verna, Club International in Frères, and Sogesol in Lalue, among others. FAES aims to address urgent food needs with dignity and compassion, ensuring a basic level of well-being for the most affected communities.
