We had scheduled food distribution for 200 familes (out of 800) for this morning. As happens in this kind of thing, more folks showed up and kept showing up. Everyone left with something but those who weren't on our list will be visited, their stories verified and added to the list for the next time. This food program is made possible by CRS (Catholic Relief Services) and USAID.
Stay informed, stay involved: here's one way of keeping up with what's happening in southern Haiti. Please consider supporting our mission to save orphans and vulnerable children from desperate poverty; contributions can be sent to our partners at Free the Kids - www.freethekids.org. Thank you for your help.

Friends
These three came by this morning looking for food. They said that someone in town told them that we were giving out food today so they came for their families. We gave them some and will verify their stories just to be on the safe side. I forget the names of all of them but the two on either side are brothers and there are nine people in their family. The boy in the middle, Nathan, has seven in his.
Oh, did I mention that they walked here from town? An hour if you don't dilly-dally.
