This is the kind of food your donations are purchasing!!! This is amazing to say the least. I spent 10 days down in Haiti (7/31-8/9) and it was such an amazing experience once again. This is a picture of what they are eating now. Although they are not getting 3 meals a day still, their food has really improved. They are eating more nutrient dense food and look at their portion size!!!! It is truly amazing. There are no other words to describe it. Last year they were lucky to get one meal and if they did it was rice and beans or noodles. They were really underfed and looked it. This year they looked really good. Not as good as they could or should but much, much better. The women who work there told me, through a translator, that they have been eating better. They were so grateful for all that you have done. Your donations are really working and helping. Several people on our mission team are sponsors and they were so pleased to see their donations hard at work. A couple of them stated that last year the kids outside in the village were healthier looking than the kids in the orphanage and how this year it is the complete opposite.
The part that really made me think was when Pastor Placide called me over one morning when we were getting out of the car and said that had our church not come down last year and we met, he was going to be closing down the orphanage and letting the kids go. Now what you have to understand is that when he means letting them go it literally means opening the doors and letting every single one of those kids out on to the street to fend for themselves. Can you even comprehend that? I can't. Pastor said he believes it was by divine appointment that I was there. And it has been through your donations that we literally were able to save the orphanage. Are you comprehending how much your donations do and will make a difference? Please spread the word. This is real. You are a part of changing 32 kids lives (they have been able to take in 2 more boys). We saw it firsthand this year. And I am able to show you in pictures. I can communicate it directly to you. This is an amazing opportunity, you are making a difference.
