Report from Dav Irnive

Hello all,

Attached is the report of the most recent food and shelter material distribution, involving approx. 180,000 lbs of food and more than 2000 tarps. This last delivery was made to specific targeted areas of particular need and to schools operating on the island of LaGonave.

The impact has been enormous, the feedback very positive, the recipients deeply appreciative. Never before in my experience have relief supplies reached so far into the rural areas or been so specifically targeted to the real needs. Paul Donn, Caleb and the rest of the team have accomplished a monumental task, clearly one of the best relief distributions in recent history here. This gesture of compassion has greatly alleviated the suffering of people on LaGonave and in the epicenter region.

The NYNE District and their funding partners, the volunteer distribution team, the YWAM and Wesleyan missionaries, and our Haitian colleagues deserve our recognition and appreciation for sacrificial service in the best tradition of our Christian faith.

Please feel free to use this material to communicate with those who have participated in this team effort.

Blessings,

Food help / Report of the distribution on La Gonave area. 

English version 

      The distribution of the food assistance for the second step of the Wesleyan mission on the La Gonâve Island after the earthquake on January, 12, 2010 was begun on May, 12 / 2010 and was finished on May, 21 / 2010. After distribution, thirty two (32) schools have received food for canteen and fifteen (15) communal organisations have received food to distribute to the poor and hungry  people, those most in need of assistance .

      Thanks to good organisation and distribution planning before starting with the distribution and the security precautions, the distribution preceeded in the best conditions without problems or disorder. The different directors or representatives of the different schools were very happy to receive food for canteen and are grateful to the different donors  for the help.

      Its is important to underline that the remaining schools wish to find for their schools next time . People need help.

The mission to distribute food to those areas with a hungriest population is not easy. But, thanks to God, we have accomplished a successful distribution (Paul Donn JEAN and Caleb THOMPSON).
