Eat out for Haiti

You can help others out while you eat throughout April at the student-run pop-up restaurant Happietaria. Co-organizer and International Land and Water Management student Eve-An van de Brug: ‘Our goal is to raise 40,000 euros. All the money will go to rural Haiti. There are few opportunities for young people there, so they tend to move to the city and often end up in criminal circles. The organization our proceeds go to, Tearfund, trains young people in growing crops, book-keeping and marketing. They are also given their own plot of land, and once they’ve had training, they can pass their knowledge on to people in their community.’ Until the end of April, those wishing to dine out for a good cause can eat at Happietaria Wageningen in the old chemistry building on the Dreijen. ib
