Join us this #GivingTuesday in raising $30,000 to provide
the life-sustaining gift of food!
Dire doesn’t describe it. On a phone call, Ticarme said, “I went behind my house and sat down in the chair and thought, we are all going to die.”
Ticarme has never been a pessimist. She holds onto hope until there is nothing left to hold onto. The situation in Haiti has left Ticarme and so many others with nothing to grasp. There is very little food and what there is costs more than nearly everyone can afford. The violence, which started in the major urban areas, has reached all areas of Haiti and upended infrastructure and economic activity.
It is the darkest hour in a place that has known deep darkness. But the darkness isn’t supposed to overcome. Unfortunately, while that promise provides hope for Haitians in the life to come, if God’s people sit on their hands, the darkness of death will overcome.
We try not to embellish needs. Nor do we try to overstate the impact of your gifts. Sometimes financial gifts allow kids to have protractors in school. Sometimes they enable staff to receive bonuses.
On the rare occasion, financial gifts save lives. This is that rare occasion.
