WFP continued to deliver assistance to Haitians as well as services to the humanitarian community and scaled up its operations, increasing the number of beneficiaries reached compared to 2020 from 1 million to 1.3 million. The increase in beneficiaries was due to an expansion in emergency food assistance programme. In 2021, WFP supported the Government with humanitarian and development interventions to address the root causes of hunger. Compared to 2020, WFP doubled the emergency support through cash and food. The school feeding programme provided daily meals to 293,582 children, whereas the home-grown school feeding programme, which connects to local markets and producers, reached 86,000 children. This represented an increase of 60,000 school children receiving daily hot meals compared to the previous year. Likewise, WFP worked to support vulnerable communities by creating, rehabilitating, and modernizing community assets, aiming to strengthen their resilience to shocks and sudden onset emergencies. In collaboration with the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor, WFP enhanced social safety nets and social assistance programmes and supported the Directorate for Civil Protection with capacity-strengthening activities and throughout the earthquake response.
