Destruction in Haiti!
Funds have been received and we are thankful to God for your generous gifts. Thanks especially to those from other countries who also want to help those suffering in Haiti. Rapha is partnering with the following agencies to help those in greatest need.
The Caris Foundation/Body and Soul Ministry - arrived in Haiti and distributed the boxes of gloves, surgical masks, iodine, surgical gowns, surgical tape and sponges that Rapha sent.
Healing Hands International - funds to purchase portable water filtration units
Hope for Haiti's Children - funds for this ministry who sponsor children in Haiti and support three schools in Port au Prince. We hope to help them rebuild one of the schools that was destroyed.
Global Samaritan Resources - funds for water purification systems. And possibly a container to be sent soon.
Disaster Response Team - sent funds to help purchase supplies as a team left Jan. 26 for Haiti. They help a practical nurse in Port au Prince and also visit and help at the Sonlight Children's Home. Rapha packed and sent 16 boxes of meds and supplies Feb 2.
Mobile Medical Disaster Relief - Dr. David Vanderpool was working around the clock to help thousands of Hatians at the Jimini hospital coming to receive medical treatment. Rapha sent 46 boxes of medical supplies to this hospital last week. MMDR is now in Port au Prince and helping as they can.
White's Ferry Road Disaster Relief & MARCH for Christ, Philippines - hoping to send 200 wall tents (6-8 person) at a cost of $165 per tent.
We may also be working with Christian Relief Fund
As funds come in, we will keep accessing where to best use the funds that have been given to Rapha. We want to be completely sure that those who receive these funds will use them wisely.
The funds you send will be used to help the people of Haiti to recover from this terrible tragedy. Help if you can! And please pray for the people of Haiti.
