As of today, Yéle Haiti has prepared and distributed more 52,000 hot meals in a pilot program that began Sunday, January 24th, 2010. The goal was to deliver between 5,500 to 7,000 individual hot meals a day in affected neighborhoods throughout Port-au-Prince.
While these meals were delivered daily from January 24th to 31st, the hot meal pilot program is now operating on Sundays. The next hot meal delivery is today, February 7, with 6,000 meals being prepared and delivered in the following areas: Bel Air, Cite Soleil, Route de l’Enterrement and Carrefour de l’Aeroport in Port- au-Prince.
All distributions are managed by the local Yéle Haiti team in collaboration with community leaders.
