Suzanne “Sami” Scott recently evacuated Haiti after armed gangs attacked the rural town of Gros Morne, where Sami has lived for the past five years, located four hours north of the capitol city of Port-au-Prince. Sami operates a henhouse project in Gros Morne, where she applies her expertise in finance and management to improve food security and income generation in the community by providing a stable, economic and safe supply of eggs and creating jobs, both directly – at the hen project – and indirectly – by providing a market for local farmers’ corn for the hens’ feed. Sami joined Maryknoll Lay Missioners in 1996 and served in Venezuela and Cambodia before starting a new ministry in Haiti in 2018.
Almost half of Haiti's people are struggling to feed themselves as gang violence spreads across the country, forcing people to stay home. Inflation and poor harvests have also helped push Haiti to its worst levels of food insecurity on record while the national and local levels of government collapse under a siege led by gangs armed by U.S. manufactured weapons, obtained by criminal enterprises from U.S. states with weak gun control laws.
