Haiti - Economy : 3.7 billion from the Public Treasury to support the purchasing power of families
The Government is strengthening its support for the population through the Multisectoral Emergency Program (Programme d’Urgence Multisectoriel - PUM). This exceptional allocation of 3.7 billion gourdes, mobilized by the Public Treasury, is intended to support families' purchasing power while encouraging national economic recovery.

Under the leadership of Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, the Government is rolling out a vast financial assistance program to support 286,833 Haitian families in order to meet the urgent needs of households most affected by the economic situation.

Three groups will benefit from this assistance between September and October 2026 :

• Parents of schoolchildren : 200,000 (70%);
• Vulnerable households : 55,333 (19%);
• Workers in the textile and domestic production sectors : 31,500 (11%).

Cash transfers, made via Mon Cash and Nat Cash, amount to approximately 15,000 Gourdes per recipient, with withdrawal fees fully covered by the government. Workers receive their support through their employers or directly into their bank accounts.

As of October 11, 2025, more than 94,000 transfers had already been made in less than 48 hours.

Beneficiary identification relies on reliable databases and institutional partners to ensure the fair, equitable, and transparent distribution of public funds.

• SIGE (MENFP) for parents of schoolchildren,
• SIMAST (MAST) for vulnerable households,
• ADIH and labor unions for employees in the textile and industrial sectors.

"Assisting the Haitian population, particularly the most vulnerable, is a moral duty and a national responsibility [...] Education remains the key to development and the driving force behind a better future for our beloved homeland, Haiti," declared Prime Minister Alix Didier.
