Dear friends,
As we turn the page to a new year, we want to thank you for walking with us—through every season, storm, and seedling.
2025 was a year of deep challenges for Haiti.
It was also a year of quiet victories.
Because of you:
- Gardens fed families through rising hunger
- Trees were planted after Hurricane Melissa
- 783 CODEP workers received direct support
- A new generation of young leaders entered our Mentorship Program
- And communities continued to lead, grow, and restore their land
Your support was never just about trees or tools.
It was about trust.
It was about dignity.
It was about believing that reforestation is not only possible, but essential—for Haiti’s future and our shared planet.
As we begin 2026, we do so with hope, humility, and purpose.
There is still much to do.
Soil to heal. Young minds to train. Roots to strengthen.
But together, we will keep planting. We will keep showing up.
And we will continue to prove that sustainable change grows from the ground up.
From all of us at Haiti Reforestation Partnership and CODEP:
Happy New Year.
May 2026 bring you peace, strength, and the joy of knowing you are part of something lasting.
Thank you for being part of this work. Thank you for believing in Haiti.
With gratitude and hope,
Michael Anello
Executive Director
& The Haiti Reforestation Partnership Team
