Haiti Foundation of Hope Update

We can’t thank you enough for partnering with us to help Haiti during this crisis caused by flooding during the hurricane season. Hundreds have been killed and thousands are in need. Supplies like fuel, water and medicine have to be brought north from Port-au-Prince which is difficult because of washed-out roads and bridges. The task ahead is overwhelming but Haiti Foundation of Hope is taking steps forward.

Already we have been able to purchase medicine for the Clinic of Hope in Terre Blanche. We have given money to help clinic staff and their families who lost everything. Food is being distributed.

Next week, Haiti Foundation of Hope board members and volunteers are teaming up with Medical Team International on a disaster relief team to Haiti. The Haiti Foundation of Hope medical team previously scheduled to go in October is still planning to go.

We’ll continue to update you with the latest in how we are helping and how you can be involved.
