Beds for HaitiOn our last trip to Haiti, June 2015, with Martin Kendig from Conejo Valley Rotary Club and other members of our team, we visited the orphanage the Paraclets, located up in the mountain, near Port-au-Prince, to give away school supplies. At this time the orphanage had about 80 kids and we found out they did not have enough beds. The conditions were miserable, and our Rotary club decided to start to buy a few iron beds in Haiti, and to go to install the beds on a next trip. And it was done on February 18, 2016. |
