Haiti is the most densely populated nation in the western hemisphere. Plagued by disease and malnutrition more than three quarters of the population live in extreme poverty.
On January 12, 2010 a 7.0 magnitude earth quake struck the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince. Over 250,000 died and hundreds of thousands homeless. The earth quake is a tremendous blow to this poor nation, from which it will take years to recover.
Our team of volunteers will help to reduce the suffering of Haitian children by assisting with the construction permanent homes for over 50 orphans who were left homeless by the quake.
How are things going in Haiti? How is my daughter Elyse doing? We are interested in hearing about the mission trip. Pictures would be great. :)
