Project Report | Jan 3, 2017
Haiti

By Stephanie Bowers | Project Leader

I can hardly believe our work in Haiti started almost four years ago! We have been predominantly working with the Rescue Center at Real Hope for Haiti, providing cloth diapers for up to 75 babies of diapering age. Lorraine, one of the leaders, recently called to express gratitude and share with us the impact the diapers have had. Our conversation was an amazing one, one that brought me to tears, 

Lorraine shared with me that the diapers we have sent have truly changed the Rescue Center for the better. She expressed the sheer joy and happiness of the nannies, because they have quality diapers for their babies. Leaky diapers are no fun, especially with sick and recovering babies. To not have leaky diapers is just a sheer joy. 

Beyond Real Hope for Haiti, we have also just begun working with Children's Health Ministries in Carrefour. The first diaper distribution just occured. Diaper kits were given to new Moms as part of their Maternal Health Clinic. Mickey reports "We were so blessed to give these to a few of our new moms. The look of sheer delight on their faces was amazing! Thank you for blessing the moms and babies!"

As we move forward, we are closing our Hurricane Matthew project and focusing on our main Haiti project: "Be the Change; Saving Haitian Babies in Need"

Thank you for your amazing support!
