Sherry and I flew into the Port-au-Prince airport today. Then, due to safety concerns regarding danger on the roads, we took a helicopter from the airport and landed here at Love A Child. It took only 8 minutes!! To drive it takes about one and a half hours sometimes, more depending on traffic. Special thanks[…]
In Haiti, water is hard to come by, and clean water is even rarer. Thanks to our generous partners we were able to give the gift of water to this poor village. Let us always practice gratitude for what we have, and generosity for what others need!
Thank you for your help. We are distributing food in south Haiti to the earthquake families. This area is called, “L’Asile,” which was in the epicenter. We are also building the Gabion houses all through this area. Sherry and I are hoping within the next few days to be back[…]

“The Calling” Haitian children are precious. The mountain children begin working from the time they can walk. They learn how to carry things on their heads while walking with their mother. The boys begin to help their father (if they have one) at a young age too. Many mountain children do[…]
Beautiful, graceful Rebecca is 12 years old and in 8th grade. It is just a miracle of God that she ended up here in our Children’s Home. Our Director, Nelio Barthelemy, had heard about a little girl that was about to be sold as a “restavek slave child.” She was[…]
