In order to deal with food insecurity, the Haitian Health Foundation (HHFF), a nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve the health and well-being of women, children, families and communities through health care, education and community development has carried out the distribution of 8,000 food kits and 8,000 hygiene kits in Jérémie on the occasion of Mother’s Day.
