Haitian Children's Aid Society hasn't added a story.
In 2010, a great earthquake struck Haiti, damaging the orphanage we support and forever changing the only home many of the children had ever known. In addition, a huge influx of abandoned children needing shelter and refuge ended up on our doorstep. They had lost so much. Our faithful donors and volunteers rallied to raise needed funds and to build temporary, emergency lodging (shacks) while teams on the ground, in partnership with other aid agencies, ensured that the children and workers and volunteers were safe and cared for.
With this money, we are rebuilding 6 new homes on new land, in a new compound which will provide safety, shelter, clean water, education, medical care, youth training and more for up to 60 children daily and provide supports for their Haitian community. We have the perimeter wall up and a building to store materials...now we need to get started on the children's homes!
WHY DO WE NEED YOUR HELP?
These children deserve hope.
Our donors and volunteers are critical to our success in meeting the varied and challenging needs of the project and our Haitian children.
Because you matter to them…and to HCAS.
With your support we are the hands and feet and heart these children depend on.
Your support will change the life of a child forever…and it may just change yours too.
Get involved today. Help get these children out of their shacks.
