Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

IN 2013, NOT LONG AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE, PCAT STARTED WORKING IN HAITI, BY PROVIDING BUSINESS MANAGEMENT TRAINING TO 100 WOMEN IN CAP-HAITIAN AND LAUNCHING A WOMEN-LED CANDLE PRODUCTION AND EXPORT COMPANY CALLED FANM LIMYE (WOMEN ILLUMINATED), A FOR-PROFIT BUSINESS, WHICH IS 97% OWNED BY PROSPERITY CATALYST WITH EACH OF THE REMAINING SHARES OWNED BY TWO PCAT BOARD MEMBERS AND THE CURRENT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. FANM LIMYE IS ALSO REGISTERED IN HAITI AS A LOCAL NONPROFIT. IN JANUARY 2015, PCAT MOVED THE OPERATION TO PORT-AU-PRINCE (PAP), WHERE THERE WOULD BE EASIER AND CHEAPER ACCESS TO SUPPLIES AND TO BOTH LOCAL AND EXPORT MARKETS.THE GROUP OF WOMEN TRAINED IN CANDLE-MAKING IN PAP FOUND THAT THEIR PRODUCTION WAS HAMPERED BY HIGH QUALITY BEESWAX, SO PCAT DECIDED TO WORK WITH LOCAL BEEKEEPERS STARTING IN 2016. TO DATE, WE HAVE TRAINED 1,108 BEEKEEPERS, 62% WOMEN IN 5 COMMUNES OF THE WEST DEPARTMENT AND 3 COMMUNES OF NIPPES DEPARTMENT.
