A HELPING HAND
GAHDA responds with immediate support to the most vulnerable – those living alone, those
living with mental health and physical problems, and marginalized groups. As members of
this community, we are trusted to be a reliable, non-judgmental, compassionate team to
whom people turn in times of extreme need.
Examples of recent Helping Hand interventions include:
- Meals for elderly widows
- Funeral expenses
- Costs for medication and laboratory testing
- Support to new mothers
- Transportation to medical care in other parts of Haiti
