There are children all over Haiti, from the mountains to the garbage dumps, who live “day by day.” They try to find joy in the smallest things, because their lives are rough. They walk miles for a bucket of water, help their father plant seeds into soil that will not grow, and they try to...
Raphael is now 14 years old. He and his two sisters were brought to us by their aunt. They traveled all the way from Cap-Haitien to come here. His parents could not care for him, and so we took in Raphael and his two sisters, Bianca and Ada. Raphael is very sweet and quiet. He...
We are so excited about our new Malnutrition Center. We now have five babies. This morning, the mothers were sitting in rocking chairs, feeding their babies!
