CPSDA: Coalition for Promoting Sustainable Development in Action.

We are trying to help people in need in our local areas such as destitute and orphaned children and those without proper housing or education. We have many programs under development to help our people, including a children’s sponsorship program, training and education program, food security and agriculture program. You can help us in our work by supporting REPADS/CPSDA through a financial donation, volunteering in and with our community leaders and through your prayers.

On Wednesday September 11th, 2013, REPADS/CPSDA was able to organize a training session for 50 goats breeders at Leogane. This training session was aimed at following a participatory approach and provided tools and techniques to improve goat breeding in Haiti. Owning your own livestock and breeding goats, cows, chickens and ducks is much like a bank account for North Americans. Haitians invest in their own futures and increase their incomes by breeding these animals not only to provide food for their families (eggs, milk and meat) but also so that they can sell them at a future date to purchase the many other items needed to raise their families such as clothing, furniture, beds, toiletries, school supplies, tuition and uniforms for their children to attend school. At present REPADS/CPSDA is working with several breeder associations to access education and information which will help many individual families (currently over 300) to raise, feed and protect their livestock, thereby providing a real future with fewer hardships and uncertainty.
