Mr. Nakhle Hado of Food for the Poor shows Prime Minister Bruce Golding how to prepare Lion Fish for cooking. The fish, which has the texture of the popular Parrot fish, is an invasive specie that has been eating popular plate fish in Jamaican waters. Mr. Hado explained how to safely remove the venemous spines and showed that the fish does not need much scaling. The Prime Minister later ate a sample of fried Lionfish provided by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries in its booth at the Denbigh Agricultural and Industrial Show on Monday, August 2.

Food For The Poor: One Month After Haiti Earthquake

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
02/11/10

General relief

Over the past month, Food For The Poor has been able to provide relief to Haiti through the acquisition and delivery of more than 7,100 tons of food, medical supplies, pharmaceuticals, building materials and other goods to support the victims of the Jan. 12 earthquake. The 359 containers have provided lifesaving goods to those suffering from the effects of the earthquake. The people of Haiti have been provided with more than 20 million meals from the rice, beans, canned goods and water shipped into Haiti. Food For The Poor was able to immediately respond to their needs because there were goods in the Port-au-Prince warehouse, containers already in the port, and more containers on the way when the earthquake hit.
