FAVACA Board and staff would like to remember those who lost their lives or were injured in the Haiti earthquake January 12, 2010.  FAVACA is committed to supporting Haitian organizations in the recovery and rebuilding of the country. FAVACA has been working in Haiti since 1982 and remains dedicated to empowering Haitian partners with the tools and skills to build back Haiti as they envision it!
