In Haiti’s Artibonite region, violence has forced thousands of families out of their homes, and hunger keeps getting worse. For many of them, one hot meal a day is what holds things together.

World Central Kitchen (WCK) partners with Hôpital Albert Schweitzer to run community kitchens on the hospital campus, in camps for displaced families, and in surrounding communities. Local staff light the stoves before dawn, every day. WCK and its partner have served more than 12 million hot meals across 26 community kitchens, and WCK has committed to continuing this response through 2026.

A meal in Haiti costs about $2. We’re funding $80, which covers ~40 hot meals. 

This project is carried out by World Central Kitchen, a registered nonprofit with a long-running presence in Haiti. Funds go directly to WCK’s Haiti relief, and the receipt will be shared once funding is complete.

$2 × 40 meals = $80. That’s our goal.
