July 2023 🇭đŸ‡č Haiti News

By Guesly Dessieux

There are days when I think about Haiti and tears start flowing out of my eyes as I feel powerless to change the situation. The news continues to weigh heavy on our hearts, but we remain optimistic and continue to work under traumatic conditions while attempting to meet the needs of those most at risk: children and youth. Many organizations have had to close their doors with inflation of prices and significant insecurity. PLH is standing strong and has responded to the national crisis. PLH employs 31 Haitians that keep our programs running. We have 200 kids and young adults participating in our programs weekly. We provide food relief to 16 churches and are feeding 130 youth weekly.  We remain steadfast to continue the work and trust in God's plan for Haiti but we need your help more than ever.  

Tomorrow, we launch our Join the Community campaign. Our goal is to raise $7000 in new monthly giving and we need your help to reach that goal. Monthly support keeps our Haitian staff employed, keeps programs going on the campus, allows us to organize events to encourage the community, and makes it possible for PLH to continue to push forward. If you are a monthly donor, I want to say a huge thank you. You have sustained PLH through some of its hardest months. If you are not a monthly donor, I want to invite you to join!

 

For as little as $10 a month, you can help continue the work of PLH and empower Haitians to build a stronger Haiti.

 

$25 a month can help keep the soccer fields mowed and lined for tournament season. 

$50 a month can help cover teacher and coach salaries.

$100 a month can help provide nutritious meals for youth to combat the increasing food insecurity.
