Francois Lominy says:
"When I send my coffee to Just Haiti through KDB to sell, I get more money per pound than the price in the local market. I also receive some profit after sales, and I use this to pay for my children's school fees, pay the hospital when it is necessary, buy food and take care of my family. I was even able to buy the materials to build and repair my house.
"Drink Coffee, Grow Justice!"
Dear Friends,
With grief and sadness we write to let you know that Just Haiti will have to suspend operations temporarily (we hope).
For security reasons, we air freight coffee out of Haiti, and the FAA just announced an extension of the airport closure until September. Even if the airport were open, gangs are in control of the roads in and out of Port-au-Prince, and it is not safe for them to transport coffee.
We will continue keep you informed of any future developments.
With gratitude to each of you,
The Just Haiti Team
