Hello Friends and Family,
This November, I will be on a team heading to Haiti. We’re partnering with Help End Local Poverty and local Haitian leaders to love and serve the people of Haiti.
As most of you know, Haiti suffered a severe earthquake in January of 2010. Haiti is considered a 4th world country, or what’s called a least developed country. Extreme poverty has created a massive orphan crisis. The sex-trafficking industry is exploding, hunger and disease runs rampant and many people are suffering! However, there is hope and God is moving in Haiti through local Haitian churches and leaders. We want to come along side of these brave men and women and help serve Haiti together. We want to co-partner in the work God is already doing!
Part of Help End Local Poverty’s mission is to build 100 homes and drill 25 water wells. On this trip, we will actually help fulfill part of this vision. Every team member has to raise an additional $500 that goes towards a key project, which will help our Haitian friends long-term. It will also help create jobs for our Haitian friends. So by going to Haiti, we will help a family move into a new home or help a community receive clean water, and we will also create jobs in the process. Our ultimate goal is to help restore Haiti while Haitians lead the way!
On this trip, we will be provide health care to Haitians (by running medical clinics), lead a kids camp for 35 orphans and work in a tent city with vulnerable kids!
Here’s where we need your help:
- We need you to pray for us.
- We need your help financially. The trip cost is $2100, which includes $500 for the project.
