Implemented by Research Triangle Institute (RTI), through the International Medical Alliance (IMA), TOMS shoe company donated footwear to the Charles Lebosse school students that will help protect them against the transmission of lymphatic filariasis in combination with their regularly distributed medications. Afterwards, Ambassador Pamela White met Fernando Capellan, CEO of Grupo M, a company operating in the CODEVI Industrial Park located near the Dominican border in the city of Ouanaminthe, in northeastern Haiti. During the visit, the Ambassador took the opportunity to visit several industrial facilities where 7,000 Haitians are currently working. To underscore her commitment to environmental protection, Ambassador White planted a tree at the CODEVI Park courtyard. At the conclusion of her tour to the region, Ambassador White participated in a heads of jurisdiction forum in Cap-Haïtien. At the forum, the Ambassador announced the official deployment in the jurisdictions of Cap Haitian and Fort Liberté of the PROJUSTICE project, funded by the U.S. government, through USAID.
