Your generous support of $18,000 has the opportunity, through an approved PAOC/Canadian Foodgrains Bank food project to become $72,000 (CFGB matches donations 4:1) and will help to meet the staggering needs for humanitarian aid and for recovery and reconstruction activities.
We are grateful for the safety of PAOC missionaries Michel and Louise Charbonneau and Tami Goslow and Bob Thornley. We are grieved to learn of the death of Pastor Gandy St-Hilarie who was in charge of our weekly feeding program and was also involved in the ChildCare Plus sponsorship program. We are also saddened to learn of the confirmed death of one of our CCP sponsored children.
PAOC/ERDO (Emergency Relief & Development Overseas) is responding with practical help for the victims. On Tuesday, January 19th an Emergency Medical Response Team left the Dominican Republic with a truck load of medical aid and arrangements are being made through PAOC missionary Adrian Thomas in the Dominican Republic, for twice weekly shipments of relief goods into Port au Prince by small plane for use by the team on the ground.
Thank you PORTICO, for responding to this crisis. Let’s continue to pray for the people of Haiti, our missionaries, and all those involved in the relief and reconstruction process. We will continue to accept donations.
