What’s Happening in Haiti?

Why Haiti?

Haiti is a gang-torn country known as being the poorest in the Western-Hemisphere, resulting in severe economic hardship for its residents. With an estimated 49% of Haitians surviving off of less than $3 a day, and almost 50% without electricity (PIP World Bank, 2022-2025), Haiti is in desperate need of support. This is why Al Rahma has stepped up to help, our goal is to provide essential human necessities to all of humanity.
