Lambi Village — This is how you help HaitiansChris Johnson
Despite being a small, grass-roots nonprofit, The Fuller Center for Housing has built more than 150 safe and decent permanent homes in Haiti since the 2010 earthquake — including 56 in Lambi Village. Lambi stands as a shining example of how Haitian families can be helped and empowered with a hand-up approach, as opposed to the kind of well-meaning handouts that nevertheless have created and exacerbated a culture of dependency in Haiti. If just a tiny percentage of the billions that flowed in to help Haiti in the aftermath of the quake had gone to the grass-roots Fuller Center, all 200,000 homes damaged by the earthquake could have been rebuilt.
Now that The Fuller Center has set the example with Lambi Village, we encourage you to support our work and invite other nonprofits who strive to empower Haitians to help themselves to learn more about our model of enlightened charity.
