Mesi for Helping to Load the Container!
With many volunteers, the HHF container loading was a living example of the Haitian proverb, "Anpil men chay pa lou" (many hands make light work).
Thank you to the approximately 75 HHF supporters who showed up on January 14th to help load the latest container to Jérémie!
It was a cold morning, but thankfully the wind died down for the hours that we were packing.
Recognizing the two years since the Haiti earthquake, the volunteers formed a circle and remembered all of those who were injured or killed from the earthquake. Many of our HHF employees in Haiti lost immediate family members in the earthquake, and we continue to support many of those who took in relatives who escaped the devastation in Port-au-Prince. Our thoughts are with all of those in Haiti who continue to be affected by this tragedy.
We managed to pack roofing materials for 50 more houses in Makandal, as well as cases of tuna and peanut butter, food from “Kids Against Hunger,” boxes for Save-A-Family recipients, medical supplies, new shoes, and school supplies.
Thanks to all who helped out. Without you, getting supplies from here to Haiti would take many more weeks. Mesi!
