“Promotion of giving and contributions to provide relief for needy Haitians”
This is our mission statement and here lately is has seemed good to make sure that we keep our focus right where it needs to be. So how does this all come about? Let's take a brief look at some of what has been done and those things that are before us.• Child Sponsorship – education, nutrition, jobs, clean water
• Home building – shelter, dignity, encouragement, jobs
• School construction – places to gather out of the weather, potential for education
• Medical Clinics – meeting physical needs, education to care for oneself
• Sponsoring a Nurse, Teacher, Principal – jobs, education, leadership
• Animal contributions – Food, multiplication and sharing, learning care of animals, jobs
• Conferences – Continuing education. Leadership skills, community building
• Churches – Soul care, community building
• and more
Currently in the works or planning process
• New metal building structure for remote locations- 1st one to be prefab here in the states with the intention of teaching how to build it locally in Haiti. Walls will be built locally with materials available there. 36'x48'
overall and all can be shipped in a 20' container. Seen here in Africa and designed by a missionary who also works in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
• Continuing “Shoe Bag” project providing school supplies, hygiene items and toys– looking at kicking it off mid summer this year
