OUTREACH MINISTRIES
CRS RICE BOWL – WEEK 5: HAITI
CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING FOCUS: CALL TO FAMILY, COMMUNITY
AND PARTICIPATION.
In Haiti’s rural areas, a shortage of health care centers and doctors are a fact of life.
CRS is working with a network of community volunteers to provide better health
services for women and young children. The healthcare program in Les Cayes is now run
almost entirely by Haitian resident volunteers. Volunteers have contributed more than
175,000 hours per year and have reached out to more than 29,000 children and 12,000
mothers. In target communities, the malnutrition rate has decreased from 14 percent
to 8 percent.
To learn more about Haiti, go to www.crsricebowl.org and click on Stories of Hope.
