Dear Mr. Peter Wilson,
On behalf of Haitian Orphans Wish (HOW) organization, I would like to
thank you and the student of the Baccalaureate
School for Global Education for your generous contribution.
Amid so much despair since
the catastrophic earthquake and the new Cholera epidemic in Haiti, your medical
supply collections, many cases of water and your large cash contribution is
especially important to alleviate the suffering of the orphaned children of
Haiti.
We have been supporting
the “Soeurs Redemptrices de Nazareth Orphanage” in Kenskoff Haiti for the
last five years. This orphanage is headed by Sister Dona Belizaire who counts on
our monthly contribution to help feed about 90 to 100 children daily. We are
also helping four other orphanages/children charities in Haiti. With the recent
tragedies, these orphanages has exceeded their capacity and relies on donations
to provide a safe haven for the numerous new orphans.
Your
contribution would go toward the following:
-
Expanding
the capacity of the orphanage to accommodate additional children
-
Providing
them with 3 meals a day
-
Recruiting
additional staff to care for them
-
Help
build a much needed pantry to store their food supplies from pests and theft
-
Provide
water treatment equipment for safe drinking water.
In our search to lessen
the suffering in Haiti, we cannot forget that there are now over 360,000 orphans
in the Port au Prince area. They depend on organizations like HOW, and
supporters like BSGE School that are willing to take a stand and make a
difference in their lives.
Your commitment to helping
HOW is sincerely appreciated.
Yours truly,
Marcel
Toussaint
