[$5,000 raised so far toward the goal of $15,000 – please
support this documentary and tell your friends! -JC]
For those who don't know, Hands That Feed is a
documentary film exploring the agricultural crisis in Haiti and the
grassroots sustainable food security movement arising. Our goal is to
highlight the organizations you all know about and work with, and to
tell the world the truth about what's wrong in Haiti.
We want to thank
everyone who has thus far supported Hands That Feed. This is
a grassroots fundraising effort, and every donation counts! We
had an amazing first couple of days. Of course, after our initial
blast, the pace has naturally slowed. So now we need a second push, in
which we're asking people to both support, and to please
forward the video link! We all know there are thousands
of people out there who believe in a new food system and development
model, and this is exactly the story that needs to be told to achieve
this.
Again, please forward
the video link widely to all those who care about sustainable
agriculture, new development paradigms, and Haiti.
Thank you,
Josh Levin

"It
was a mistake.
I have to live everyday with the consequences of the loss of capacity
to
produce a rice crop in Haiti," Bill
Clinton told the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee on March 10, 2010. "The country has the best
chance
in my lifetime to achieve this objective: to build a modern
self-sustaining
state. But what it means is that we have to think about our roles in a
different way, and how we will play them in this reconstruction
process.”
