The Green Family Foundation (GFF) team traveled to New York for the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting on September 20-23, 2010. FastForward Haiti founder Laurence Magloire and Director Tatiana Magloire attended the event and illustrated GFF and FastForward's dedication to the repatriation of Haitian culture. The events were held at the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers, pictured left.
Green Family Foundation President Kimberly Green was selected to appear in this year's CGI Stories. CGI Stories are interviews with CGI commitment-makers filmed on-site at Clinton Global Initiative meetings. The session allowed President Green to share the successes of GFF's commitments to Haiti action items, speak about the success of Sinema Anba Zetwal and the foundation's membership in the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI).
The Special Session: The Recovery in Haiti forum was moderated by President Bill Clinton, Founding Chairman of the Clinton Global Initiative and U.N. Special Envoy to Haiti. Remarks were made by René Preval, President of Republic of Haiti; Denis O'Brien, Chairman, Digicel. Clinton thanked the CGI members participating in the Haiti Action Network. He also spoke of Haiti's agricultural sector, and the steps being taken to boost production and export of Haitian food products.
