“Before the earthquake, I was a maid to earn some money, but now you can’t find that job. I live on God’s account to feed me each day as I continue to struggle with life.”

To live I trade according to the period, at the moment I sell soft drinks. With the scarce means I had, I built a small house to live in with my kids. But after the earthquake in August, I lost everything and all my efforts were destroyed.

“After the earthquake I was living in a shelter made of prela and used sheet metal. I sold local alcohol and coal.”

“ I can’t believe I’m still alive after the disaster of August 14, 2021. Because our house collapsed and it could have fallen on us, but God spared us that day!”

“Things are really difficult for us after the earthquake and we had to go and live in a Camp”.

I sold used clothes, shoes and other items. but now after the earthquake things are not the same and we have enormous difficulties to live.

I am a motorcycle taxi driver and thank God I did not lose my motorcycle and that is what keeps us going financially during these difficult times.

“ I lost my home since the earthquake and since then I have been looking for help to get me back on track.”

“After the earthquake of August 14, we were forced to live with our mother in her house because she was less damaged.”

“ I live with my two children in the district of Lakreyol in Cayes, one of whom is 3 years old and the other 4 months old, she was born on August 14 during the earthquake. I thank God for giving life to me and my children that day. ”

“That day, I lost my house and all my belongings.”

“Thank God we are still alive and we have hope. I and my wife do farming with the limited means that we have.”
