HELP US BUILD HOPE IN HAITI Today, more than two years after the earthquake that left 300,000 Haitians dead and 500,000 injured, many families have shelter thanks to the Habitat for Humanity effort, but more than 1 million Haitians remain homeless. Indian River Habitat for Humanity (IRHFH) has pledged to raise $120,000 in new money to build 30 HFHI "core houses" in Haiti as part of Habitat International's efforts to serve 50,000 families in Haiti over the next five years.
HFHI Director Christine Odom travelled to Haiti to see first-hand Habitat's work there. She met many families with a roof over their heads because of Habitat's Affiliate Tithe! One new mother was very far along in her pregnancy when the quake hit. She had lost her housing, and had nowhere to go. But, because of the help provided by Habitat, her baby was delivered inside a new shelter and out of the elements!
