DEVASTATING EARTHQUAKE IN HAITI

Disaster once again has hit the country of Haiti. As we sat and watched the news, I began to recognize some of the streets and buildings that I had seen on my trips there driving through Port au Prince. Seeing the people sitting on a pile of rubble that once was their home made my heart sick. People everywhere with no place to live, no bed to sleep in and no possessions left of the few that they had. There are no bathrooms, no food or water and 2 hospitals also collapsed leaving the city with limited medical facilities and thousands of people with no where to go. They are sleeping on the streets, walking over dead bodies and many looking for their loved ones. I have seen men holding their children in their arms with just a horrendous look of pain on their face. We have visited 2 different orphanages there in Port au Prince and now we are waiting to hear what happened to all those children. One had 100 kids and another around 38. There is no word yet as to whether those children are safe or not. I am asking for your help. They desperately need food and water and we at Shoesforhaitiskids.com wants to help any way that we can. If you would like to donate money for food or water, or if you would like to collect BRAND NEW shoes or flip flops, please send them to New Hope Ministries, address is listed on the side of the blog. If you can help financially, please MAKE CHECKS PAYABLE TO NEW HOPE MINISTRIES, with a note on the memo line if you would like us to use the money for food or to purchase shoes. God bless you for your help, without you we wouldn't be able to provide food or shoes for those who are suffering in Haiti from this devastating earthquake.
