Our Solution to the Problem

Though we can't pick up and go to Africa to right all the wrongs, we chose to right some wrongs and get involved in a situation a little closer to home.

Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world, besieged by violence and extreme
poverty. It’s people are beautiful and long for a better life for themselves and for
their children.

For HIS Glory Outreach seeks to meet the needs of those in such dire conditions. The orphanage is currently home to over 150 children and provides jobs to over 200 Haitians. They provide the children with 3 meals per day, clean drinking water, an education and a chance at a better life. Sadly, there are more than 80 children turned away each month due to lack of funds. They are seeking to make 1000 friends in 100 days to make a commitment to help change the lives of these children. $1 per day - $30 per month can literally make the difference between life and death for these children.

We have chosen to partner with For HIS Glory in both support and the adoption of 2 of the children in the orphanage.

Hi Heather, Jeremy and boys,

Thank you for sharing on Haiti. What a blessing. I am not at all proficient in blogging, so we'll see if this even posts!

Your family is a blessing to us and this ministry. We will forever be thankful to all you have poured into all of us.

Linda
