                     Organisation des Femmes Dévouées en Action                                  Celebrated its one-year anniversary June 12, 2011/ Fèk selebre premye anivèsè li 12 jen 2011.

                 “The only way to resist our problems is to meet”

Less than six months after the earthquake, six months of living in tents and temporary dwellings, with out sanitation, privacy, or adequate food, with unbearable memories of loss, a remarkable woman’s organization began on Rues Frères, Port au Prince in the schoolyard of a destroyed building that was a grave for forty children. The tents are temporary but OFEDA as a collaborative organization is enduring. OFEDA is moving forward. The website shares their stories and their vision for the future.

 

“Sèl jan nou ka reziste fas ak pwoblèm yo, se pou nou chita ansanm”

Sis mwa apre tranblemann tè a, sis mwa apre nou kòmanse viv anba tant ak nan kay tanporè ki pa gen bon jan sanitasyon, ki pa gen espas prive, san manje kòm sa dwa, ak touman memwa moun ki peri yo, yon òganizasyon fanm te leve kanpe sou wout Frè nan Pòtoprens nan yon lakou lekòl kote 40 timoun te pèdi lavi yo. Tant yo tanporè men gwoupman fanm OFEDA a ap dire.  OFEDA ap vanse pou pi devan.  Sit entènèt sa a montre istwa fanm sa yo ak vizyon yo genyen pou fiti a.
